Our Story
Accountee was founded in 2022 by a team of accountants from BDO, NAB, and Westpac who saw a gap in the market. Small and medium businesses were stuck between two bad options: DIY accounting that took too much time, or expensive local firms that charged enterprise rates.
We knew there was a better way. By combining offshore efficiency with Australian expertise, we could deliver Big 4 quality at a fraction of the cost. Not by cutting corners, but by building a smarter operating model.
Today, we manage payroll and accounting for recruitment agencies and growing businesses across Australia. Our clients get dedicated teams, strategic advice, and the peace of mind that comes from working with professionals who actually understand their business.
What We Stand For

Client Success First
We succeed when our clients succeed. Every decision we make is filtered through this lens.

Australian Management
Our offshore team is managed by Australian accountants with Big 4 backgrounds. Every piece of work is reviewed by someone who understands Australian compliance and business practices.
