The next quarterly tax deadline is June 15. Are you prepared for that on top of other accounting, HR, and management duties you have? For small businesses especially, hiring an accounting controller will save time, money, as well as peace of mind.
There Are A Lot of Duties To Hand Over
There’s a lot more you may be handling than you need to. All those accounting tasks — processing payroll, managing account payables/receivables, investing, budgeting, reporting, risk management, overseeing the accounting team — could be in your controller’s hands instead. Even if you don’t have an accounting team, as many startups don’t, you could use their assistance in establishing one as you expand. Additionally, with their expertise, they can tell you exactly when to perform an audit and help you prepare.
Beyond accounting duties, controllers are glad to perform some of those of HR. This includes hiring, training, answering questions about employee benefits, and managing employee files as well as 401(k) activity.
How Your Company Can Benefit
Expertise is a primary advantage of hiring a controller: It minimizes trouble with accounting software and provides you with the confidence that your finances have professional security. You can relax in the sense that your bookkeeping will stay up to date, which gains importance as small businesses start to grow. Rather than leaving yourself, your CFO, or accountant(s) burnt out, this is the opportunity to increase efficiency by supplementing these parties. Furthermore, it is cheaper to collaborate with a controller than to pay a staff member’s salary. Save that money for other pressing business matters!
