US bookkeepers, sourced from Latin America.

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.

Professional team collaborating remotely

Sound familiar?

Problems we hear from every small business owner who has tried to hire a bookkeeper.

"A good US bookkeeper costs more than my work justifies."

Four to six thousand dollars a month for fifteen hours of actual work. The math doesn't add up.

"The last bookkeeper didn't really know my tools."

They claimed QuickBooks, Stripe, Shopify, and Gusto. Turns out they knew one or two well and were faking the rest.

"I tried offshore and it was a nightmare to communicate."

Time-zone lag, broken English, misunderstandings on basic accounting vocabulary. Never again.

"I don't have time to interview ten people to find the one good one."

Hiring is a months-long distraction from running the business.

"I want a bookkeeper who owns the work, not one I have to micromanage."

Detail-obsessed, results-oriented, owns the entire function. That's what you need, and that's what we find.

How it works

Five steps from discovery call to your new bookkeeper. We do the hard part.

1

Tell us what you need

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.

2

We source and screen

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.

3

You see candidates on video before you commit

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.

4

You interview the ones you like

We schedule, you interview, you decide. We're in the loop only as much as you want us to be.

5

You hire them directly. We charge a one-time placement fee.

No monthly markup, no payroll relationship, no ongoing fee. You own the hire.

Financial planning and accounting

Simple, transparent pricing

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.
