What they handle

Off your plate. On the books.

A small business bookkeeper from the Philippines can take recurring finance admin off your desk, keep records current, and give you cleaner numbers before decisions get expensive.

01

Daily bookkeeping

Record transactions, categorize expenses, update ledgers, and keep your books from turning into a monthly cleanup project.

02

Bank reconciliation

Match bank and card activity, flag inconsistencies, and keep accounts ready for review.

03

AP and AR tracking

Support invoices, vendor bills, payment follow ups, and receivables tracking so cash flow is easier to manage.

04

Month end reports

Prepare recurring bookkeeping reports, organize documents, and support your accountant with clean handoffs.

Cost comparison

One hire. Two thirds the cost.

Small business questions

What small business owners ask first.

The goal is simple. Get clean bookkeeping help without creating another management burden for the owner.

Is hiring a Filipino bookkeeper legal?

Yes. More Staffing supports the engagement through a managed staffing model with payroll support, onboarding, coaching, and ongoing account support.

Do they know QuickBooks and Xero?

Yes. We screen for tool experience based on your role scope. This can include QuickBooks, Xero, Google Sheets, Excel, payment processors, payroll systems, and ecommerce platforms.

Will they work US or UK hours?

Time zone overlap is handled during role scoping. Many Filipino remote professionals can support US, UK, Canadian, or Australian teams with agreed working hours.

Can they work in my same systems?

Yes. We scope the role around your current tools and operating habits, then screen candidates who can work inside those systems.

How is this different from Upwork or Fiverr?

This is managed staffing, not freelance task work. More Staffing recruits, supports payroll, helps with onboarding, provides coaching support, and backs the engagement with ongoing replacement coverage while managed.

How fast can I see candidates?

The target shortlist window is 14 days, depending on role complexity, tool requirements, seniority, and interview availability.

What if the hire does not work out?

For managed hires, More Staffing provides ongoing replacement coverage while the hire remains under the managed model.

How senior can the bookkeeper be?

We can source different levels, from bookkeepers handling recurring transaction work to more experienced accounting talent who can support AR, AP, reconciliation, reporting, and finance admin.
