Why hire offshore staff from the Philippines?
Cost-effective
Because the cost of living is much lower in the Philippines, hiring an offshore team member allows you to save 25-50% on staffing costs. This allows you to invest more in the business and scale up faster.
Education and Skills
The Philippines is home to an educated and highly qualified talent pool that can easily adapt to new processes and technologies.
English Proficiency
English is one of the Philippines’ official languages and is used for many verbal and written communications. This helps them carry out their role properly and build strong working relationships.
Work Ethic
Filipinos are very service-oriented and have high regard for professionalism, as well as loyalty and integrity. Their positive attitude towards work makes them an attractive offshore team.

, Bluebird Accounting
When Bluebird Accounting identified that we could strengthen our business operations through the use of offshoring we came across a number of providers, one of the considerations for us is that the provided needed to understand compliance regulations for the Accounting Profession. When we were introduced to The Remote Accountant (TRA) we felt empowered with information to make introduce offshore accountants in to our team. Craig Allen the director is a fellow CPA qualified professional within Public Practice and with expertise in quality control for Accounting Practices. TRA understands the Offshoring Standards set by the APESB and keeps us informed and up to date with these. The combination of offshore knowledge and local knowledge has provided Bluebird Accounting with peace of mind that we are meeting our ethical and professional obligations, which is important to our values drive practice. We have been provided with many opportunities with TRA including, selections of candidates for positions, guidance in the interview process, support with on-boarding, training, HR, and events for team members. Our success with our offshore team has been strengthened by TRA and the on-going support is valuable to our practice.

, BNR Business Accountants
BNR Business Accountants have been dealing with Craig and The Remote Accountant team since 2021, and have always enjoyed the high levels of support and interaction. The ability of TRA to find highly skilled and personable staff, and provide relevant training to bring and keep them up to speed, has made the outsource hiring process much more enjoyable than previous experiences with other “specialised” providers.
Dealing with a provider that actually do what they say they will do , and then exceed expectations, makes the process much more efficient and effective, allowing us to focus on what we do best.
We cannot recommend The Remote Accountant highly enough and associates we have referred have also thanked us for their experience.
Imelda Mangan
, Burnett Business Centre
We have had the most incredible, supportive experience with The Remote Accountant and the service that they provide in placing offshore team members into our accounting practice.
The assistance in, sourcing the right staff to fit our team, and the thorough process of reviewing applicants, testing applicants accounting knowledge and supporting the interview process right through to the onboarding of the team members into our firm has been second to none.
Craig even travelled to the Philippines to run training for the team in Australian Tax requirements – this provided a fast tracking of the team to be productive very quickly. Craig and his team have gone beyond expectation in assisting us. We started out with the intention to onboard 1 additional team member and we instead took on 3 and could not be happier. We highly recommend others considering taking on offshore staff to engage with Craig and the team at Remote accountant – you will not be disappointed.
