About the Role

We are looking for an experienced Offshore Delivery Manager to lead and scale our Philippines accounting delivery team supporting US-based clients.

This role sits at the intersection of accounting quality, team leadership, capacity planning, hiring, and operational execution . You will be responsible for ensuring the Philippines team delivers high-quality accounting work, new hires become productive quickly, and strong team members are retained and developed.

You will own account-level staffing, quality standards, onboarding, and team development - building the structure and processes needed for the Philippines team to absorb 8-10 additional client engagements over the next 12 months while improving billable utilization without sacrificing quality.

The ideal candidate has operated as a Controller, Accounting Manager, or Senior Manager within an accounting firm or finance outsourcing environment , has managed and developed a sizable accounting team, and is comfortable being both a technical accounting leader and an operational owner.

Key Responsibilities

1. Own PH Account Coverage & Capacity Planning

• Maintain a live, client-by-client staffing map showing team assignments, capacity, utilization, and staffing gaps.
  
• Assess current team utilization and identify opportunities to increase billable capacity without compromising quality.
  
• Identify under-resourced or at-risk engagements before they become client issues.
  
• Evaluate whether each engagement is properly staffed , not simply fully staffed.
  
• Partner with the recruiter to define hiring requirements and technical assessments.
  
• Interview accounting candidates and provide the final hiring recommendation.
  
• Serve as the primary point of contact for Philippines capacity constraints, staffing gaps, and delivery risks.
  

2. Own the Quality of PH Accounting Delivery

• Serve as the first escalation point for technical accounting and workflow questions from the Philippines team.
  
• Resolve issues at the PH level whenever possible rather than unnecessarily escalating them to the onshore team.
  
• Review accounting work and identify errors before they reach clients or onshore reviewers.
  
• Establish clear standards for what high-quality accounting work looks like.
  
• Bank reconciliations
  
• Payroll journals
  
• Month-end close procedures
  
• Build a documented review and SOP framework, targeting 10 documented processes by month 6 and full recurring-work coverage by month 12 .
  

3. Own Onboarding, Development & Retention

• Build and maintain a structured onboarding and training program for new Philippines hires.
  
• Reduce time-to-billable to 30 days through clear training plans, documentation, and performance milestones.
  
• Mentor accounting staff and create development paths for high performers.
  
• Identify skill gaps and implement targeted training.
  
• Maintain annual voluntary PH attrition below 10% .
  
• Ensure people development translates into measurable career progression and stronger team capability.
  
• Partner closely with recruiting to define technical requirements for accounting hires.
  
• Participate in candidate interviews and technical assessments.
  
• Evaluate candidates based on accounting knowledge, client-service ability, communication, and team fit.
  
• Make final hiring recommendations for accounting team positions.
  
• Build a strong understanding of the Philippines accounting talent market and what differentiates high-performing candidates.

• Every client engagement has appropriate PH staffing and clear capacity visibility.
