WHO THIS ROLE FITS
US controllers, accounting firms and growing finance teams
Your bookkeeper captures transactions, but close schedules, accrual support and review queries are accumulating.
What stays with your team
Your controller retains accounting-policy decisions and final review. Required qualifications and US accounting experience must be specified and verified.
THE WORK TO DELEGATE
What you can delegate.
- Prepare journal entries with supporting schedules
- Reconcile assigned balance-sheet accounts
- Maintain accrual and prepaid schedules
- Compile management reports from approved records
- Investigate variances for controller review
Match your tools and workflow
Specify your ledger or ERP, Excel requirements, reporting basis and entity structure.
What to include in your brief
List accounts owned, close timetable, reporting basis and the person approving journals.
Include your monthly budget, required US-hours overlap and the person who will review the work.
Scope this role ↗AGREE WHAT GOOD WORK LOOKS LIKE
What you should be able to review.
Use these examples to agree deliverables and review standards for your workflow.
- Journal pack with calculations and approval trail
- Balance-sheet schedules tied to the ledger
- Variance commentary separating facts from assumptions
Where a person adds value alongside automation
Automation can assemble reports. An accountant still needs to reconcile conflicting records and explain movements within the policies your controller sets.
Start with the work your tools leave unresolved. The remaining workload should justify a dedicated full-time hire.

Find the right person.
Suggested assessment: Provide a sample prepaid schedule and incomplete close pack. Check calculations, evidence and escalation of unsupported entries.
Make the interview useful
Discuss a representative task, ask how the candidate handles uncertainty, and agree what good output looks like. Use sanitized examples rather than live credentials or sensitive customer data.

Start with a manageable scope.
Suggested priorities to agree with your hire, adapted to your systems and expectations.
Start with a bounded assignment: Journal pack with calculations and approval trail. Review it together before expanding responsibility.
Set a recurring review for balance-sheet schedules tied to the ledger. Keep an escalation list for items the hire cannot resolve.
A paid trial, with clear terms
The current offer is a paid one-week trial, credited toward your first month if you continue. Confirm the trial price, scope and continuation terms before starting.
Agree the complete quote
Confirm the role, working hours, extras, payment schedule, notice requirements and replacement arrangements in writing before you commit. A published range is a budget guide, not your final quote.
BEFORE YOU DECIDE
Before you decide.
Clarify the working arrangement before you commit. If your scope spans several roles, we can help you decide where to start.
Talk through my requirements ↗Is this a replacement for our US CPA?
No. This is dedicated accounting capacity managed by your team. Tax opinions, statutory filings requiring authorization and professional sign-off remain with appropriately qualified people.
How soon can someone start?
Timing depends on skills, seniority, working hours and candidate availability. We confirm the expected shortlist timeline after reviewing your brief.
Who supports the employment and office setup?
Your Remote Staff is operated by Salt Technologies. Staff work from the managed Pune office, with recruitment, standard hardware, IT, HR, payroll, attendance and replacement support. You direct daily work.
