See accounting services →From strategic CFO oversight to hands-on compliance — two tiers so you engage exactly the level of support your business needs right now.
Three levels of part-time financial leadership, from a monthly reporting package to a full interim CFO — priced by days committed per month, not a mystery quote. Interim CFO, Interim Financial Controller, and Financial Reporting & Dashboards, explained side by side.
Single-entity statements, GAAP conversion, and multi-entity consolidation are three depths of the same underlying work — priced by how many entities and standards are involved, not by guesswork.
Financial due diligence for buyers, sell-side readiness for owners preparing to raise or sell, and ongoing support through an active deal — grounded in Big 4 audit training and hands-on acquisition experience, not generic M&A advisory.
Restructuring finance functions for scalability — internal controls, process automation with tools like Basecone and Exact, and the vendor master data quality work that determines whether automation actually holds up.
Deep-dive review of your bookkeeping and administrative records. Identifies errors, gaps, and compliance risks before they become costly problems.
Evaluation and redesign of internal control processes based on the COSO framework — identifying control gaps and building practical, right-sized controls for your business.
From your monthly bookkeeping to annual accounts, payroll, and VAT — explained in plain language, under Dutch rules.
For digital entrepreneurs — e-commerce, online services, cross-border sales — with 0–20 transactions/month: your books kept current every month, invoicing to your own clients handled for you, plus a plain-language monthly dashboard of revenue, expenses, and cash flow.
For OSS/IOSS: we prepare the calculations and the return, ready to file. You review, approve, and file — final responsibility for the accuracy of your sales data stays with you. This applies to businesses established in the Netherlands/EU. We are not a registered IOSS intermediary.
Your dashboard data is processed under the same client agreement as your bookkeeping, hosted on EU servers. See our Privacy Policy for details.
Monthly payroll processing in Exact — payslips, payroll journal entries, and wage tax (loonheffingen) filing with the Belastingdienst. For businesses registered in the Netherlands with staff on payroll.
Two things, both included: (1) year-end accounts (jaarrekening) prepared and filed with the KVK, and (2) the corporate income tax return (vennootschapsbelasting) prepared and filed. Both are a legal requirement for BV entities. Not applicable to ZZP/eenmanszaak, who are not required to file annual accounts with the KVK; income tax support for ZZP is included in monthly bookkeeping.
Chart of accounts setup, Exact Online configuration, first financial statements, and onboarding guidance — for newly formed BV entities in the Netherlands. Not applicable to ZZP/eenmanszaak, whose setup is simple enough to be included in monthly bookkeeping.
Four services, not one: filing prep for EU-established sellers, monthly reconciliation for anyone already registered, intermediary vetting for non-EU goods sellers, and registration correction if you're on the wrong scheme. I'm not a registered IOSS intermediary and never take on that liability.
A simple, transparent onboarding so there are no surprises on either side.
30-minute video call to understand your business, pain points, and the reporting standard applicable to your jurisdiction.
Clear scope, fixed pricing or hourly estimate, and an engagement letter. No hidden fees, no scope creep.
Credentials via encrypted channel. I connect to your accounting system and review your chart of accounts.
Monthly reports, quarterly check-ins, and proactive alerts. No chasing required.
No commitment, no sales pitch. Just an honest conversation about where your finances stand and what it would take to get them where they need to be.
