JOB OVERVIEW

Senior Accounting and Finance Recruiter
Full-time · Fully Remote · Based in the Philippines · Direct Hire with U.S. Client

IMPORTANT: Direct experience recruiting accounting or finance professionals for the U.S. market is mandatory. Applicants without this experience will be automatically rejected.

About the Opportunity
Alderstone Partners is representing a U.S. recruitment firm with an accounting and finance practice seeking an experienced Senior Accounting and Finance Recruiter based in the Philippines to join its team directly and support recruitment across assigned U.S. markets.

This is a full-time, direct hire opportunity with the client organization. The successful candidate will be employed directly by the client, not Alderstone Partners.

We are seeking a recruiter with demonstrated experience identifying, engaging, and evaluating accounting and finance professionals, with relevant exposure to corporate accounting, financial planning, audit, tax, and finance leadership.

The ideal candidate understands the difference between accounting operations, financial reporting, financial analysis, and specialist finance functions. This role requires careful assessment of the work a candidate has owned, the organizations they have supported, and the complexity of their responsibilities. Beyond sourcing, this position requires sound candidate judgment, professional communication, and the ability to manage specialized searches independently.

What You Will Do
- Source Accountants, Accounting Managers, Controllers, Financial Analysts, Auditors, Tax Specialists, Treasury professionals, and finance leaders.
- Screen for month end close, reporting, budgeting, forecasting, audit, tax, or treasury experience relevant to each search.
- Distinguish public accounting from corporate accounting, and assess the relevance of industry, company size, and reporting environment.
- Clarify experience with U.S. GAAP, accounting systems, professional credentials, and financial responsibilities where required by the client.
- Assess the scope of team leadership, entity responsibility, process ownership, and stakeholder exposure for management and executive searches.
- Conduct targeted Boolean searches, competitor research, and talent mapping to identify qualified active and passive candidates.
- Engage candidates through LinkedIn, email, phone, professional networks, and other approved sourcing channels.
- Confirm compensation expectations, career interests, location preferences, availability, and alignment with the client’s requirements.
- Manage multiple searches, coordinate interviews, and maintain consistent candidate engagement through interview and offer stages.
- Maintain accurate ATS or CRM records, screening notes, candidate submissions, and pipeline updates while protecting confidential information.
- Communicate progress and search challenges promptly, and deliver consistent recruitment activity without compromising candidate quality.

What We Are Looking For
- Direct experience recruiting accounting or finance professionals for U.S. employers.
- Understanding of accounting and finance career paths, including distinctions between transactional, analytical, specialist, and leadership roles.
- Ability to distinguish a CPA credential from an accounting degree or professional accounting experience.
- Familiarity with U.S. GAAP, financial reporting, and common accounting or finance systems at a recruitment screening level.
- Experience assessing candidates for the specific finance function required rather than relying on a general financial services background.
- Previous experience with recruitment agencies, specialist search firms, staffing organizations, or relevant internal talent acquisition teams.
- Strong direct sourcing, Boolean search, passive candidate engagement, and relationship management skills.
- Excellent written and spoken English, with confidence communicating directly with U.S. candidates and hiring stakeholders.
- Experience using LinkedIn Recruiter, ATS or CRM platforms, recruiting databases, and other sourcing tools.
- Strong organization, attention to detail, discretion, and the ability to manage searches independently.
- Availability to support U.S. business hours based on client requirements.

Preferred Recruitment Specializations
We are particularly interested in recruiters with experience sourcing and placing professionals within one or more of the following areas.

Accounting and Reporting
- Staff and Senior Accountants
- Accounting Managers and Controllers
- Accounts Payable, Accounts Receivable, and Payroll

Finance and Assurance
- Financial Planning and Analysis
- Internal Audit and Public Accounting
- Tax, Treasury, Credit, and Collections

Finance Leadership
- Finance Directors and Vice Presidents
- Chief Financial Officers
- Financial Reporting and Compliance Leadership

Candidates are not expected to have experience in every specialization listed. We are primarily interested in the depth of your relevant recruitment experience, your understanding of candidate qualifications, and your ability to identify suitable professionals for specific client requirements.

What We Value
- Market understanding: Familiarity with the U.S. employers, candidate backgrounds, and hiring requirements relevant to your specialization.
- Candidate judgment: Identify the candidate’s actual financial responsibilities, reporting complexity, relevant credentials, and ownership of results.
- Sourcing expertise: Resourceful research and targeted outreach that reaches qualified professionals, including passive candidates.
- Professional communication: Clear, thoughtful conversations that establish credibility and keep candidates and hiring stakeholders informed.
- Ownership and consistency: Organized pipelines, reliable follow through, accurate documentation, and accountability for search progress.

Compensation
USD 1,000 to USD 1,800 per month in base salary

Final compensation will depend on relevant accounting and finance recruitment experience, U.S. market exposure, sourcing expertise, specialization, communication skills, and overall alignment with the client’s requirements.

Employment Structure
This is a direct hire opportunity with Alderstone Partners’ client. The selected candidate will join and work directly with the client organization.

This is not a temporary staffing assignment, and the selected candidate will not be employed or payrolled by Alderstone Partners.

Alderstone Partners facilitates the search, candidate assessment, introduction, and hiring process. The client organization retains responsibility for the final hiring decision and employment arrangement.
