Case Study
Small UK Accountancy Firm.
![Problem](https://global.samera.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/problem_24dp_FILL0_wght100_GRAD0_opsz24-2.png)
The Problem
This UK small accountancy firm had been using offshore team members for a number of years, mainly using team members from the Philippines.
However, the owner of the firm was finding that the offshore staff’s quality of work was dropping, and the offshore firm was finding it difficult to find new team members to join offshore to help the small UK accountancy firm.
The owner had been very patient and explored other offshore firms in the Philippines but everyone that joined only stayed for a couple of weeks, which had a very negative impact on his firm and its clients.

The Solution
At the end of his tether, the client approached Samera Global, and we listened to his concerns.
Initially sceptical, considering his experience with offshoring, he gave us a chance to find him suitable team members.
Through initially understanding the roles he required for his firm, we then devised specific job descriptions for the roles required.
Then through our HR team based in India, we set about the process of finding suitable candidates. Numerous interviews were carried out with candidates, language tests, and accounting tests were also carried out until the field was narrowed down to a few select candidates.
The client then interviewed each candidate, putting them through a series of assessments.
Once he had assessed each candidate he then decided to take-on board 4 candidates. One team manager, one bookkeeper, one year-end accountant and one tax accountant.

![Problem](https://global.samera.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/problem_24dp_FILL0_wght100_GRAD0_opsz24-2.png)
The Problem
This UK accountancy had recently won a new large piece of business, doing the book-keeping and accounts payable side of things for a £ 15 million turnover company.
The company had grown fast, and had implemented Xero, but when the accounting firm got involved it was evident that things had been implemented very poorly and with no clear structure.
Despite winning the business, the accountancy firm needed an army of experienced Xero bookkeepers to get things in shape as quickly as possible.
The accounting firm had drafted a standard set of procedures but they were struggling to find bookkeepers to help with all the backlog and then ensuring the monthly accounts going forward are done correctly.
