Default Book-keeper in Melbourne?

Hi there,

I would really like to catch up and potentially hire a book-keeper who is based near Melbourne's CBD. I suspect I would only need maybe half a day of somebody's time a week or fortnight, to go through receipts, tax, accounting practices, bills and P&L.

Can anybody recommend a good, trustworthy book-keeper who is happy to work with a micro business a few hours a week or so?

Cheers
Georgie

I'm about to start working with Kylie of Tilda Virtual Services Website - however she's going to be in the outer Eastern suburbs.

Most of the other bookkeepers I know are either in the outer suburbs or interstate. Sorry, I'm not much help...

Maybe Kathie Thomas has someone in her VA network?

Yes good suggestion Melissa. Definitely google Kathie Thomas of A Clayton's Secretary Georgie. Kathie can post it on the members job leads forum for you. I don't doubt that you will receive some quick responses from some really good Virtual Assistants.

I certainly do have many book-keepers and I'm sure they're just waiting to hear from you Georgie. If you want to PM me your details and requirement or fill out the job request form at my site (on the menu For Clients) I'm pretty sure you'll hear from at least 2 or 3 on the same day.

Thanks for the mention Melissa and Rachel.

Dear Georgie

I've only just got into the forums, so apologies for the late response!

If you are still looking for a bookkeeper to help with your business, I am sure we at Virtual Angels would be able to assist you.....

Virtual Angels is a small employment agency specialising in work from home professionals. We have an extensive national database (over 1800 candidates) who would be qualified, experienced and flexible to assist you.

The benefits of a self-employed virtual assistant / bookkeeper is (i) no need to find office space and equipment as the Angels work from home, (ii) you only pay for the hours worked and no need to set up as an employee, (iii) and the Angels are highly experienced (mostly work from home mums with professional backgrounds).

Many of the people registered are also open to working on a part-time basis from your place of work as well as from theirs - flexibility is the key here.

We work on a success only basis so it won't cost you anything for us to take a look at the database and send you some resumes to review. If anyone interests you, we can then arrange a meeting. Should we find a suitable person for your business, we agree an upfront hourly rate and in order to keep to your budget you decide what those hours are to be.

I look forward to hearing from you if we can help.

Kindest regards
Suzanne

Hey Suzanne,
