Business Development Manager - US

Come and make a real impact, The Back Room is growing fast, helping over 150 accounting firms across the world offshore their tax and compliance work, freeing up their time and capacity to grow and develop onshore capabilities and deliver value-added advisory services to their clients.   

We have taken our vision and proven business model from New Zealand and the Philippines to the world and now have clients across New Zealand, Australia, the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom.

As a company, we pride ourselves on a people-first culture; we provide unique opportunities that are equally challenging and rewarding and an environment where people are celebrated for the impact they make, encouraged to bring their whole selves to work, and supported to grow and develop.

The Back Room

One of the biggest causes of stress for accounting and bookkeeping firms comes from concerns around talent acquisition and retention and a lack of capacity to focus on business growth.  The Back Room has a proven business model building and training offshore teams for our Accounting and Bookkeeping partners, allowing them to gain time and financial freedom to grow their business, expand their value-driven advisory offerings to clients, and build the onshore capabilities of their onshore teams.
