Finding qualified accountants who meet your standards, stay long-term and don’t take months to get up to speed is the biggest challenge facing accounting practices right now. S&B Private was built by accounting practice owners who solved this problem inside their own firms first. The same recruitment, training, and management system that we spent years refining is now available to you. Structured by us. Directed by you.
As accounting practice owners ourselves, we’re your peers and colleagues. You’re collaborating with fellow accountants who understand the people and skills you need.
We know that finding qualified accountants with the right technical skills, intellect, and attitude to succeed is an ongoing challenge for accounting practices. That’s why S&B Private exists. We own recruitment, technical training and performance for your dedicated team members, so you can focus on your clients and practice growth.
Your dedicated team member is trained to Australian technical standard through weekly CPD including live training sessions and ongoing performance assessments.
We’ve spent years developing a rigorous recruitment and training system, proved it inside our own practices, and are confident that your dedicated team member will meet or exceed the standard you expect from a local hire.
Picture the newest member of your practice as an entirely accessible, in-house member of your team. They’re trained in Australian tax, proficient in your accounting software, and work within your systems and processes.
They’re employed, trained and supported by us, with Australian-managed IT infrastructure, security aligned to the Essential 8 framework, and structured employment arrangements that protect your firm and your clients.
You direct the work. We take care of the rest.

We recruit, assess, employ and train qualified accounting professionals on your behalf. You manage their day-to-day workflow. We handle everything else:
As practicing accounting firm owners, we built S&B Private to solve our own talent challenges. Your dedicated team member is carefully selected, trained to Australian technical standards, and managed by our Australian-based team on an ongoing basis. We invest in IT infrastructure managed from Australia, with security aligned to the Essential 8 framework, and structured employment arrangements that protect your firm and your clients’ data.
Your dedicated team member is benchmarked against Australian accountants, undertakes ongoing CPD, and receives weekly technical training in Australian tax and accounting compliance. They’re qualified, experienced, and trained to a standard expected of a local Australian accounting hire.
Typically, they operate from 11.30 AM to 8.30 PM Australian time (AEST), which provides the advantage of extending your Australian office hours – enhancing the productivity of your accounting firm and client service capabilities.
As an owner or manager of an accounting practice, your sole responsibility is to manage and communicate tasks and workflow to the offshore accounting team members.
We will handle everything else including recruitment, assessment, training, and any administrative aspects to save you time and ensure seamless integration into your existing operations.
Our offshore accountants undertake rigorous weekly technical training sessions to ensure they are well-versed in Australian accounting standards and tax laws and maintain their CPD requirements.
Our IT systems are managed by an Australian-based managed services provider. We operate a secure IT infrastructure aligned to the Essential 8 framework, with encryption, regular security audits, and comprehensive backup systems. When onboarding your team member, our IT team works closely with yours to ensure secure access is configured end to end —so your firm’s data and your clients’ data are protected from day one.
