Who we are

How to verify us
What we do
A complete outsourced finance function, with optional HR, for Australian businesses from about $2M to $30M+ revenue, and from around 20 staff through to 350 staff. Below that range a good bookkeeper is usually better value; above it, hire.
We work with businesses Australia-wide. BAS and IAS lodgement is handled digitally through the ATO, so your BAS Agent does not need to be in your city.
Included in a typical finance engagement
- Bookkeeping and bank reconciliation in Xero, reconciled weekly rather than monthly, so your BAS is prepared from a current file instead of reconstructed at quarter end
- Payroll, superannuation and Single Touch Payroll reporting
- BAS and IAS preparation and lodgement under registration 26298194, including the agent lodgement extension
- Accounts payable and accounts receivable
- Weekly cashflow tracking, so you see the position before it becomes a problem rather than after
- Variance analysis, budgeting and forecasting
- Senior Chartered Accountant oversight for modelling and strategic decisions
Available alongside
- HR, covering policies, recruitment admin and performance frameworks. See HR services.
- Employer-of-record hiring for clients who want overseas staff on their own team. Quoted separately.
- Project work outside a monthly package, such as system migrations, financial models, due diligence support and board packs, is scoped and quoted before it starts.
Specialist finance services
Each covers a specific situation and starts at $2,500 per month.
What Scale Suite does not do
- Income tax returns or tax structuring
- Audit, assurance, financial product advice or legal advice
- Operations, IT helpdesk or marketing retainers as a connected back office
- Stay-put MYOB or QuickBooks without migration. We specialise in Xero
- Cheap standalone BAS lodgement from someone else's unreconciled file
Pricing
All figures exclude GST and are indicative.
- Finance packages from $1,500 per month. Most complete finance functions $2,500 to $6,000 per month. See pricing.
- HR packages from $500 per month. Typical full HR function $1,500 to $4,500 per month.

When is Scale Suite the wrong choice?
- You need a few hours of bookkeeping a month, you have fewer than about 20 staff or $2M revenue, or you are a sole trader.
- You need someone physically at a desk in your office every day.
- You are committed to MYOB or an ERP and do not want to move.
- You only want the cheapest possible bookkeeping layer.
