Hire a dedicated senior / qualified offshore accountant
A dedicated senior / qualified offshore accountant costs £2,500 per month all-inclusive through Aspire Offshore, against £6,738–£8,138 per month fully loaded for an equivalent senior UK hire — a saving of up to 69%.
One person. Your business only.
Senior review capacity is the bottleneck in most growing practices and finance functions: the work that can't go out the door until someone experienced has checked it. A dedicated senior accountant gives you that assurance layer full-time — reviewing financial statements, strengthening controls, supporting audits — for around a third of UK cost.
This is a senior-only role. We prioritise qualified and part-qualified accountants with 8+ years' experience and strong review backgrounds, interviewed and approved by you before they start, working exclusively on your work.
What your senior / qualified accountant can take care of
- Review of financial statements — P&L, balance sheet, cash flow
- Review of work prepared by bookkeepers and accountants
- Audit preparation and support
- Statutory accounts preparation support
- Strengthening financial controls and processes
- Technical accounting queries and judgement calls
- Risk identification and escalation
- Mentoring junior offshore finance staff

The case in one paragraph
Practices use a dedicated CA to unlock partner time — review work that currently queues for a partner's evening gets done during the day. Businesses use one as a senior finance controller without a £80k+ salary commitment.
