Dedicated Accountants and Bookkeepers for Clear Numbers

At a glance

• Role: dedicated full-time remote accountants & bookkeepers
• Typical scope: daily bank, card and platform reconciliation, accounts payable, accounts receivable and supplier follow-up, payroll-prep files and finance admin checklists
• Monthly rate: from US$1,400/month, confirmed before interviews
• Model: SkilledCreatives is a management consultancy registered under ACRA activity 70201; we employ the offshore professional and the client directs day-to-day work
• Best first step: a narrow first-week work queue with examples of good output

What they own every week

• daily bank, card and platform reconciliation
• accounts payable, accounts receivable and supplier follow-up
• payroll-prep files and finance admin checklists
• month-end close support, schedules and management reports
• exceptions, missing documents and finance questions for review

The practical value is steady execution: visible work, fewer loose ends, clearer handoffs and better information for the manager who owns the decision.

Senior Bookkeeper – 6+ years

Representative profile only, not a promised named candidate: someone with hands-on accountants & bookkeepers experience, clear written updates, tool discipline and enough judgment to escalate exceptions instead of guessing.

Sample KPIs clients set

• reconciliations current by agreed cut-off
• invoice and bill queues cleared weekly
• month-end schedules ready for review
• exceptions logged with owner and next action

What we screen for

Every placement goes through a background check and medical check, without exception. We also screen for the role-specific skills below. If a client wants practical testing for this role, we run the specialised test the client requests and use it as part of the shortlist process. We screen for bookkeeping depth, cloud accounting familiarity, reconciliation accuracy, spreadsheet discipline, confidentiality and the judgment to escalate unusual transactions. Payment approval and banking authority should stay with your authorised finance people.

How onboarding works

Onboarding starts with a role brief: tools, working hours, examples of good output, review cadence, permissions and escalation rules. SkilledCreatives shortlists candidates, you interview the people you like, and the selected person starts as your dedicated full-time teammate. The first week should stay narrow and measurable before the scope expands.

Security and confidentiality

For sensitive work, both our employment contract with the staff member and our remote staff client contract include NDA and intellectual-property assignment clauses. We also remotely manage the staff member's computer. The role remains administrative support: approvals, regulated decisions and compliance ownership stay with the client and their qualified advisers.

Replacement / mis-hire policy

If the placement does not work out, we replace the person free, for as long as it takes, until the client is happy. There is no replacement window and no replacement limit. Headhunting and sourcing for the replacement are included, so there is no new search fee. There is also no fee while nobody is working: if a placement ends mid-month, we refund the unused days pro-rata. For example, if the client has paid for July and the person leaves on 15 July, we refund 16-31 July. This is not more risk than an internal hire, and it is a more generous replacement policy than any headhunter offers.

Who this suits, and who it does not suit

This suits owners and finance leads with recurring bookkeeping volume, overdue reconciliations or month-end reporting pressure. It does not suit a company that wants an offshore hire to approve payments, sign tax filings or replace local professional advice.
