Build your dedicated offshore finance team in six simple steps

Let us do all of the heavy lifting so you can enjoy the benefits of top-tier, Australian-trained offshore accountants – without the hassle. All you need to do is communicate tasks and assign work to your new staff member.

How our process works

1. Initial workshop

We take the time to clarify your resourcing needs and understand your pain points.

2. Recruitment

We either leverage our existing talent pool or engage our dedicated recruitment division to identify, vet and onboard a skilled accountant for your business.

3. Onboarding

We then host a three-way workshop with you and your new team member to onboard them with your IT systems and introduce them to your team.

4. Weekly training

As Australian tax laws evolve rapidly today, we offer a weekly training session to continually develop your team member’s knowledge and maintain their ongoing CPD requirements.

5. Quarterly check-ins

From here on out, both your staff manager and staff member will receive a quarterly email asking you to rate their experience.

6. Annual review

We will conduct a performance and salary review with your staff member annually.

We recruit, assess, employ and train qualified offshore accounting professionals on your behalf. You manage their day-to-day workflow. We handle everything else:

  • Recruitment, assessment and hiring
  • Background and reference checks
  • Onboarding and preparation
  • HR administration and staff engagement
  • Payroll compliance
  • Ongoing CPD and deep technical training in accounting and tax regulations

This means you get trained, qualified, experienced and cost-effective accounting professionals joining your team, with less administrative burden than hiring local accounting staff.

We invest heavily in training and development

We invest significant time and resources into ensuring that our accountants are fully trained in Australian tax laws, accounting standards & software systems.

Why partner with us?

Built by qualified accountants,
run to Australian standards

S&B began as an in-house solution for two Australian accounting practice owners who demanded technical excellence, cultural fit and client data security. Those same demands shape our approach to solving your accounting talent challenges. We give you a safe, reliable and cost-effective pathway to increase capacity in your business or accounting firm.

Cultural fit

Your dedicated team members work exclusively with companies like yours. They communicate clearly, interact confidently with your clients and staff, and operate with the same level of care and responsibility that you would expect from a local team member.

Technology-enabled operations

We go beyond simply placing talent in your business. We provide your team member with ongoing training in modern technology-enabled workflows so that every hire increases the output of your business by more than just hours worked.

High staff retention

Comprehensive training, ongoing staff engagement, competitive compensation and meaningful, sophisticated client work create a working environment where our team members are motivated to stay and grow their careers. That stability means less disruption and stronger outcomes for your business.
