Outsourced Bookkeeping & Business Accounting Services Melbourne

Melbourne’s accounting talent pool is becoming increasingly scarce. Attracting and retaining skilled and qualified accountants has become harder than everbefore. Rising salaries, competition for skilled staff and retention issues are common challenges that all business owners and accounting firms are facing in today’s environment. This is impacting their ability to manage cash flow, make informed decisions, meet their compliance obligations and maintain business continuity.

This is where a strategic approach such as considering accounting & bookkeeping outsourcing can play a critical role in resourcing finance positions. It’s not about replacing your local team. It’s about supporting them with offshore accounting professionals, so that your Melbourne-based team can concentrate on high-value, strategic tasks. S&B Private specialises in recruiting, training and integrating skilled offshore accounting professionals directly into your Melbourne finance team. This approach broadens your recruitment reach beyond the competitive Melbourne market, connecting you with qualified offshore accounting talent.

S&B Private was founded by Melbourne accounting practice owners who faced the same resourcing challenges many businesses experience today. Our offshore model was originally set up to address our own staffing requirements. After proving its success, we opened the doors to support other Australian businesses and accounting firms facing the same challenge.

Here’s what sets our approach apart:
