Core responsibilitiesA bookkeeper keeps transactions coded, accounts reconciled, and your monthly close moving in the accounting system you already use.
From your first brief to a Bookkeeper working in QuickBooks Online and Xero, you stay with one recruiter from scope through start.
Tell us the work to own, from daily bookkeeping and reconciliation to month end, plus the systems, coverage hours, and outcomes that matter. We turn that into a focused search brief.
We screen candidates for daily bookkeeping and reconciliation, month end, and practical fluency in QuickBooks Online and Xero. You review a shortlist with relevant context.
Choose your candidate and hiring model. We coordinate the handoff into your tools, operating process, and first-week priorities.
Best for businesses that need current books, reliable reconciliations, and a close process that does not drift.
Reconciliation, AP and AR entry and month-end close happen against the date you set, instead of whenever someone gets to it.
Reports get built from reconciled accounts, instead of numbers that need rebuilding before anyone can trust them.
Transactions get coded and filed as they happen, instead of untangled in a scramble each year-end.
One dedicated bookkeeper costs less than the salary, benefits and payroll taxes a full-time in-house hire adds up to.
Your accountant reviews and interprets clean books, instead of doing the reconciliation work themselves.
Every candidate moves through 5-Stage Vetting with AI-assisted screening. Fewer than 1% of applicants are presented to clients.
Start a bookkeeper on read-only access and a single reconciliation, then widen scope once the first close lands clean.
Tell us your close deadline, transaction volume and accounting system on the discovery call, and we screen against those specifically.
Fully managed global talent from $12 an hour, or US direct hire from 12.5% of first-year salary. Compare the two on our [staffing solutions page](/solutions/).
"They built the analytics and automation our leadership now runs on, recovered tens of thousands in freight claims and cut manual work by 96%."
"It was very easy working with HireHawk, from looking for viable candidates, the interview process, all the way to implementation of your hire, they handle it all. We are also very happy with our hire. Very easy and seamless process."
"HireHawk filled two senior roles in under two weeks. The candidates were sharper than anything our in-house recruiter surfaced in months."
"Her scope grew within months and our leadership asked to meet her in person. We came back to HireHawk to expand the rest of the team."
"When our workflow broke down she built a tracking system to stop it happening again, without being asked."
The right model depends on the seat, not the company. Some roles need someone in the building; the rest do not, and cost far less remotely.
HireHawk is a staffing agency for growing US companies with industry-specialized recruiters. This is one of the seats we fill most: we recruit for it, run 5-Stage Vetting, and either employ the hire on global talent or place them directly on your payroll.
A bookkeeper records and reconciles the transactions and closes the month. An accountant interprets those numbers, files the returns and advises on structure. Most growing companies need a bookkeeper for the volume and an accountant for a few days a quarter. Hiring an accountant to do bookkeeping is the most common way finance budgets get wasted.
On the global fully managed model, from $12 an hour all inclusive, which covers sourcing, vetting, payroll, compliance and ongoing support. On US direct hire, a one-time fee from 12.5% of first-year salary plus a $995 retainer, or 15% with none upfront. Traditional agencies charge 20 to 30% for the same search.
Yes, and we screen against your specific stack rather than for bookkeeping in general. Name the system on the discovery call, whether that is QuickBooks Online, Xero, NetSuite or Sage Intacct, and we match you with someone who has actually closed books in it before, instead of a generalist still learning the interface.
You'll see vetted candidates in 10 business days from your discovery call, with onboarding in 21 days. Your close calendar is the real constraint here, so we recommend starting mid-month. That way your bookkeeper shadows the first close instead of owning it cold, and you are not betting your first month-end on someone brand new.
Outsourced bookkeeping usually means a firm processes your transactions on their schedule with staff you never meet. This is a hire: one named person, working your hours, in your systems, who you interview first. On the global model we employ them and handle payroll and compliance, and you direct the work.
You're covered either way. Choose global fully managed and you get 100% performance replacement at no cost. Choose US direct hire and you're backed by a 60-day replacement guarantee. Either way, we would rather replace a hire in week three than have you carry a bad one through your entire year-end close.
Tell us your stack and your close deadline. You will see vetted bookkeepers in 10 business days.
