Temporary Accounting Staffing for Phoenix Finance Teams

Temporary accounting and finance staffing places a fully screened professional with your team for a set period of time, on our payroll rather than yours. Accounting & Finance Professionals has been matching those people to Phoenix employers since 1999, and for most positions we can present candidates who are available to start within a few hours.

Our temporary staff cover the work your team cannot absorb: accounting clerks, accounts payable and accounts receivable, payroll specialists, bookkeepers, full charge bookkeepers, staff and senior accountants, financial analysts, controllers and CFOs. We staff Phoenix, Scottsdale, Chandler, Mesa, Tempe, Peoria and the rest of the metro area, and every candidate sits down with a recruiter one on one before we send them to you.

Would you rather see someone work before adding them to payroll? Look at temp to hire. If the seat is permanent, direct hire is the better route. Not sure yet, talk to a recruiter and we will tell you which one fits.

How temporary hire works

Three steps, and we handle the paperwork.

Tell us what you need

At your convenience we will come to your office, learn the role and your team’s culture, and agree on one bill rate that covers all costs. We do not work from a rate sheet.

We screen and present

Every candidate meets a recruiter one on one. We check supervisory level references, evaluate technical skills when the role calls for it, and can arrange background and on-site drug screening when your role requires it.

They start, we follow up

For most positions we can have candidates available within a few hours. We call on the first day of the assignment and check in regularly after that.

When temporary hire fits

  • Someone is out on vacation or FMLA leave
  • A system conversion or an audit is coming
  • Month end close keeps running late
  • Tax season volume is more than your team can carry
  • A seat is open and permanent is not the answer yet
  • Overtime is landing on the people you want to keep

What every placement includes

  • A professional who stays on our payroll, not yours
  • A one on one interview with a recruiter
  • Supervisory level reference checks
  • Background and drug screening when your role requires it
  • One bill rate that covers all costs
  • Replacement support if the fit is not right

Temporary hire questions

The four we hear most from business clients.

Response time varies with the nature of the position, and the more technical roles take longer to resource and re-screen. For most positions we can have multiple candidates presented and available to start within a few hours.

We do. Your temporary professional remains an employee of Accounting & Finance Professionals for the length of the assignment, so they stay on our payroll rather than yours. You approve their weekly timesheet and we bill you one rate that encompasses all costs.

Every placement is different, so we do not work from a rate sheet. When we take your job order we discuss your budget and your expectations, then present one bill rate that encompasses all costs. Weigh that against the overtime, the recruiting time and the cost of a seat that stays empty.

Contact your recruiter immediately. We will take a detailed description of what was missing and make sure we find a valued replacement. We also call you on the first day of the assignment, so most of these conversations happen early. Ask us about our 8 hour guarantee.
