Working hours overlap
Your day is their day shift.
Sydney (AEST)9:00am
Manila (PHT)7:00am
Manila is 2 hours behind Sydney (3 in daylight saving), so your business day is a normal day shift for them.
Are your accountants CPA-qualified?
Many candidates hold CPA Philippines or equivalent qualifications. We match based on your required experience and credential level.
Can they prepare management accounts?
Yes. Monthly P&L, balance sheet, and cash flow reports presented to management standard are within scope.
Do they understand Australian accounting standards?
Yes. AASB and Australian tax compliance are part of candidate screening. They work under your local CPA or tax agent for lodgements.
Can they support an external audit?
Yes. Preparing audit schedules, reconciliations, and supporting documents for external auditors is a common task.
How is this role different from a Bookkeeper?
A Bookkeeper handles transactional processing. An Accountant handles analysis, reporting, budgeting, and compliance at a higher level.
