How it works

From first call to a working team member — in weeks, not months

You stay in control at every step: you define the role, you interview the shortlist, you approve the hire. We do everything else.

The seven steps

  1. 01

    Discovery call

    A 30-minute conversation to map the role, the workflows and the tools you need covered.

  2. 02

    Define the role & workflow

    We turn the call into a precise role definition — responsibilities, systems, hours, reporting lines.

  3. 03

    We recruit & screen

    Sourcing, English screening, accounting exams, software assessments and reference checks.

  4. 04

    You interview the shortlist

    Meet 2–3 finalists. You choose who joins your team — or send us back for more.

  5. 05

    Training & onboarding

    Role-specific training on your workflows plus full security onboarding before day one.

  6. 06

    Your team member starts

    Working your hours, in your systems, attending your standups — a real member of your team.

  7. 07

    Ongoing management & support

    We handle HR, payroll, performance reviews and continuity — with a free replacement guarantee.

Behind step 3

How we screen: fewer than 5% get through

Every candidate you meet has already cleared six gates. The shortlist you interview is the top of a deep funnel — not the first three résumés we found.

  • GATE 1

    English proficiency

    Written and spoken fluency screened before anything else.

  • GATE 2

    Accounting knowledge

    Role-specific technical exams — debits to disclosures.

  • GATE 3

    Software skills

    Hands-on tests in QBO, Xero and the tools your firm uses.

  • GATE 4

    References & background

    Prior employers contacted; background checked where appropriate.

  • GATE 5

    Panel interview

    Judgment, communication and culture — assessed by our senior team.

  • GATE 6

    Your interview

    The final gate is yours. Nobody joins your team without your yes.

One monthly fee covers all of it

You get a team member. We carry the employer overhead.
