Bookkeeping Brisbane

No. Unlike many Brisbane bookkeeping services that charge BAS lodgements as a separate fee or at premium rates, our bookkeepers handle everything at one transparent hourly rate. BAS preparation and lodgement, payroll processing, reconciliations, monthly reporting, it’s all included with no surprise charges or hidden fees.

Our Brisbane bookkeepers are employed directly by your business at a base rate of $75 per hour, giving you full control and integration with your team. As their employer, you’ll also need to budget for superannuation (currently 12%) and either casual loading (25%) or leave entitlements (annual and sick leave). Part-time arrangements typically offer better value than casual for businesses needing 15+ hours per week. Minimum engagement is 3 hours per shift. This employment model ensures consistency and loyalty to your business rather than a contractor juggling multiple clients.

On-site bookkeeping means your dedicated Brisbane bookkeeper comes to your office one to five days per week for face-to-face collaboration, immediate support and hands-on tasks. Remote bookkeeping means your bookkeeper works permanently from home in Brisbane but logs in daily like a regular team member. Both options give you the same consistent expert who learns your business inside out. Remote bookkeeping offers lower overhead costs while on-site provides in-person collaboration. Many Brisbane businesses start remote and move to on-site as they grow.
