Cross Ledger places vetted, English-speaking bookkeepers from Latin America with US small businesses. Same time zone, US-trained tools, and a placement fee well below what traditional recruiters charge.
Problems we hear from every small business owner who has tried to hire a bookkeeper.
Four to six thousand dollars a month for fifteen hours of actual work. The math doesn't add up.
They claimed QuickBooks®, Stripe, Shopify, and Gusto. Turns out they knew one or two well and were faking the rest.
Time-zone lag, broken English, misunderstandings on basic accounting vocabulary. Never again.
Hiring is a months-long distraction from running the business.
Detail-obsessed, results-oriented, owns the entire function. That's what you need, and that's what we find.
Five steps from discovery call to your new bookkeeper. We do the hard part.
A 30-minute call where we go through your tools, your hours, your books, and what's gone wrong before. We use this to build the candidate scorecard.
We reach out to LATAM bookkeepers who match your scorecard. Every candidate goes through structured interviews, an English-fluency check, and a practical simulation in QuickBooks.
Every candidate comes with a short intro video. They introduce themselves, walk through their experience, and explain a basic accounting concept on camera. Rule someone out in two minutes instead of two interviews.
We schedule, you interview, you decide. We're in the loop only as much as you want us to be.
No monthly markup, no payroll relationship, no ongoing fee. You own the hire.
We charge a one-time placement fee that scales with the role's annual salary. It's well below the typical recruiter rate of 15-25%.
No monthly markup. No payroll. No ongoing cost. You hire the bookkeeper directly.
Most of our customers find the fee pays for itself in the first month of having a properly trained bookkeeper instead of an under-qualified one.
Accounting firms placing multiple bookkeepers qualify for volume discounts.
Structured interviews, English fluency checks, practical simulations in QuickBooks, Stripe, and Shopify. Not a resume screen.
Our co-founder is a career Assurance accountant. We know what good accounting work looks like.
If the placement doesn't work out within six months, we source a replacement at no additional cost.
If we don't find a candidate you hire, you pay nothing. Zero risk to start.
