Accountant: UK & Hong Kong (Intercompany & Audit-Ready Books)

We are looking for an experienced freelance accountant to manage bookkeeping for two related small companies:

• Hong Kong holding company (principal – sells to customers outside HK)
• UK subsidiary (agent – holds PSP agreements and collects customer payments, remits to HK)

Annual revenue is modest ($23k in 2024, ~$47k in 2025), but there are intercompany transactions that must be handled correctly.

Scope of Work

• Bookkeeping for both HK and UK entities
• Proper recording of PSP statements and bank transactions
• Intercompany reconciliation (HK parent / UK subsidiary)
• Month-end reconciliation and clean trial balances
• Preparation of audit-ready schedules for the HK statutory audit
• Liaising with the HK auditor during the audit process

Tax filing is optional. The HK audit will be handled by a separate CPA firm, but we would like the accountant to support and coordinate with them.

Requirements
• Proven experience with multi-entity bookkeeping
• Strong intercompany reconciliation experience
• Experience preparing books for external audit
• Comfortable working with QuickBooks or Xero
• Detail-oriented and structured (not basic data entry)
