Built for CPA firms
White-label delivery. Your brand, our work
We work as an invisible extension of your team. your clients see your firm’s name. we handle the execution.
US-standard operations
GAAP-aware. IRS-ready. Deadline-driven
Our workflows are built around US accounting standards, tax filing calendars, and your clients’ turnaround expectations.
What we hear every week
We don’t know your firm yet. But we know the questions that get CPA firm principals to pause.
Every firm that calls us is different. but the friction points are almost always the same. if any of these hit close, that’s usually where we start.
Are you turning away new clients because your team doesn’t have capacity — not because you don’t want the work?
This is the most common reason CPA firms reach us. growth is available. the bottleneck is the team that has to execute it.
What does tax season actually cost you — in late nights, missed reviews, and goodwill with your best clients?
Seasonal spikes are where most small CPA firms start losing the quality that built their reputation. offshore capacity solves that without a permanent payroll commitment.
If you hired a local bookkeeper tomorrow, how long before they’re genuinely useful — and what happens when they leave?
Hiring locally means recruiting, training, managing, and eventually replacing. we absorb all of that. your engagement has continuity built in.
Are your best CPAs spending time on bookkeeping that a certified offshore accountant could handle for a fraction of the cost?
Freeing your senior staff from routine work is the fastest way to increase your firm’s effective billing rate. that’s not a small thing.
Have you avoided outsourcing because you weren’t sure the quality would hold up with your clients?
That’s the right concern to have. the answer isn’t reassurance — it’s a trial. most firms that test us don’t go back.
What we handle
Bookkeeping. Tax. Payroll. Reporting. Everything your firm needs — without adding headcount.
We don’t offer a generic outsourcing service. We offer a certified, US-trained accounting team that works inside your workflow, on your software, to your standards. The output is indistinguishable from in-house — the cost is not.
Core service
Bookkeeping & reconciliation
Daily and monthly bookkeeping on QBO and Xero. Bank reconciliations, transaction categorisation, chart of accounts management. Clean books, every month, on time.
Tax season & year-round
Tax return preparation
White-label tax prep for 1040, 1120, 1120S, 1065, and 1041 returns. We prepare. you review and sign. your clients see your firm’s name throughout.
US & UK
Payroll processing
Full-cycle payroll for US clients via Gusto, ADP, and QBO Payroll. UK payroll as an add-on service. Compliance filings, employee setup, and periodic reporting.
Advisory support
Reporting & CFO support
Management accounts, cash flow statements, KPI dashboards, and FP&A support. Help your CPA firm deliver more value to clients without hiring a CFO.
Model one · Dedicated resource
One certified accountant. Fully embedded in your firm.
Your dedicated offshore accountant works exclusively on your clients, learns your firm’s style, and integrates into your workflow. Hire them like a team member — at offshore rates, without the overhead. ideal for firms ready to scale consistently.
Model two · Per-entity or hybrid
Flexible capacity. Scale with your pipeline.
Priced per entity or as a hybrid of both models. Use us for specific client engagements, seasonal overflow, or to test before committing to a dedicated resource. the right entry point for firms taking their first step into offshore accounting.
How it works
From first call to first deliverable in under two weeks.
The biggest barrier to outsourcing isn’t cost. it’s the unknown. we’ve engineered an onboarding process that answers every question before you have to ask it.
01
Discovery call — 30 minutes
We learn your firm’s volume, software stack, service mix, and the specific pain point you want solved. no sales pitch. we tell you whether we’re the right fit and what engagement model makes the most sense.
02
Setup & NDA — week one
We execute mutual NDAs, configure software access with role-based permissions, and assign your dedicated accountant. They are briefed on your firm’s style, client base, and expectations before receiving their first file.
03
Soft start — weeks two and three
We begin on a single low-complexity client. you review everything. we calibrate to your standards. most firms ask us to take on more clients at the end of week two.
04
Full handoff — week four onward
Your accountant operates as a genuine extension of your team. regular communication, consistent delivery, and a QA layer on our end means your review time drops — not increases — after the transition.
What CPA firms say
The firms that test us rarely go back to doing it any other way.
We were drowning in bookkeeping during tax season. bringing on a dedicated offshore accountant through Nimblechapps Finance was the single best operational decision we made last year. the quality matched — sometimes exceeded — what we were doing internally.
Partner, CPA Firm
4-person firm · Mid-Atlantic US
Freed 60+ hours per month for partner-level work
I was skeptical about data security and communication lag. both concerns were resolved in the first two weeks. their accountant responded faster than some of our in-house staff and their QBO work was cleaner than what we were producing locally.
Managing Director, Tax Practice
8-person firm · Southeast US
Added 12 new bookkeeping clients without new local hires
The certification program they’ve built internally is what sold me. I’m not getting a random hire — I’m getting someone who has passed QBO ProAdvisor, Xero certification, and is working toward their EA. that’s a better credential stack than most local candidates we’ve seen.

Our people
We don’t hire accountants and hope they’re good. We build them to a standard and certify it.
Every accountant on our team follows a structured 14-certification roadmap — from QBO ProAdvisor to Enrolled Agent. You know exactly what level of expertise you’re getting, before the engagement starts.

In Progress
Certified Management Accountant (CMA)
The IMA’s globally recognised management accounting credential. CMA candidates bring financial planning and analysis depth to advisory engagements.
Industries we know
The CPA firms we work with serve specific industries. so does our accounting knowledge.
We’ve built depth in the sectors that drive the most outsourcing demand from US CPA firms. when we say we know real estate accounting or e-commerce reconciliation, we mean the specifics — not the category.
Real Estate & Property Management
Trust accounting, rent rolls, CAM reconciliations, property-level P&L. where one error in a trust account has legal consequences.
E-commerce & Retail
Shopify and Amazon reconciliation, COGS, inventory accounting, multi-state sales tax nexus. high transaction volume demands systematic accuracy.
Professional Services
Law firms, consultancies, agencies. WIP tracking, time-based billing reconciliation, partner distributions. where the financials directly affect partner confidence.
Healthcare & Medical Practices
Medical billing support, insurance reconciliation, payroll for clinical staff. compliance-aware workflows where accuracy and confidentiality are non-negotiable.
Nonprofits
Fund accounting, grant tracking, Form 990 preparation support, donor reporting. where restricted and unrestricted funds must never be confused.
Construction & Contractors
Job costing, progress billing, WIP schedules, contractor payroll, lien waiver tracking. where a miscategorized cost can undermine an entire project’s margin.
By the numbers
The numbers that explain why CPA firms stop looking after they find us.
