Dedicated Bookkeeper for NSW Businesses
Your own bookkeeper — full-time from $1,850/mo or part-time from $999/mo — working Sydney business hours from our offshore team. You direct the day-to-day work; we handle recruitment, HR and backup cover.
Every seat is accountant-led: a CA-track accountant reviews your bookkeeper's output monthly. One named Adelaide contact, one fixed invoice — no recruitment fees, no payroll admin, no desk to find in your office.
Your hire, our headache
Why NSW businesses hire a dedicated bookkeeper
Sydney output without the Sydney salary
A full-time bookkeeper seat from $1,850/mo. No recruitment fees, no desk in your office, no payroll admin — one fixed monthly invoice, and the seat is productive from week one.
Same business hours, zero lag
Your bookkeeper works AEST business hours. Supplier bills entered in the morning are in Xero by lunch; questions get answered the same day — whether you're in the CBD, Parramatta or Wollongong.
Backup built in
Sick days and leave don't stall your books. Every seat has trained backup cover from the same pod, overseen by your Adelaide contact, with a monthly accountant review on top.

Dedicated bookkeeper FAQs — NSW
How is a dedicated bookkeeper different from your $299/mo bookkeeping package?
The package is a done-for-you outcome on our workflow, sized by transaction volume. A seat is a named person working your hours on your tasks, directed by you — uncapped within their hours and dedicated to your business alone.
What hours do full-time and part-time seats work?
Full-time seats work standard business hours; part-time seats work agreed half-days — both on AEST, aligned to your NSW business day. Exact schedules are set at onboarding.
Who manages the bookkeeper day to day?
You do — task lists, priorities, approvals. FinanceDesk manages employment, performance, training and backup cover, plus the monthly CA-track accountant review of their output.
What happens when my bookkeeper is on leave?
Backup cover from the same pod keeps reconciliations, bills and invoicing moving. Your Adelaide contact coordinates the handover so nothing stalls.
Can my dedicated bookkeeper lodge BAS?
No. Seats produce BAS-ready ledgers with clean GST coding; lodgement stays with your BAS agent or accountant. The same rule applies to our fixed-fee packages.
