About this role
Location: Philippines, Latin America, South Africa (100% Remote) Employment Type: Full-time Independent Contractor (exclusive commitment) Compensation: Competitive and commensurate with the candidate's market rate, experience, skills, and overall qualifications - Philippines: $1,600–$2,600 USD per month - Latin America: $2,100–$3,800 USD per month - South Africa: $1,500–$2,100 USD per month ABOUT THE JOB Be the steady hand behind numbers leaders can trust.
As a US Auditor supporting a dynamic portfolio of US clients, you’ll plan and execute audits, turn complex standards into clear insights, and help clients strengthen controls before issues become findings. You’ll partner with accounting teams and CPA firms across US time zones, blend rigor with practicality, and document a story that stands up to scrutiny. Full-time IC with exclusivity (no other part-time or freelance engagements once hired).
If you thrive on precision, process, and crisp communication—welcome. ABOUT THE ROLE You orchestrate the audit from kickoff to wrap: set materiality, map risks, walk through processes, and design procedures that test what matters. You’ll dig beneath the ledger—control design, evidence quality, sampling logic—then package conclusions so any reviewer (or regulator) can follow your trail. Expect variety (industries, systems, maturities) and real ownership: you’ll refine playbooks, mentor teammates, and leave every client a little stronger than you found them.
WHAT YOU’LL DO - Plan the engagement: Define scope, materiality, and risk assessment; build audit programs tailored to client size, industry, and control environment. - Understand & test controls: Perform walkthroughs of key processes (rev rec, purchasing, payroll, inventory), document narratives/flowcharts, and test design & operating effectiveness. - Execute substantive work: Design and perform substantive analytical procedures and tests of details (confirmations, cut-off, existence/valuation, completeness).
- Revenue & leases focus: Evaluate ASC 606 revenue recognition (contracts, performance obligations, variable consideration) and ASC 842 lease accounting (classification, ROU assets, discount rates). - Key estimates & areas: Audit AR allowances, inventory (lower of cost or NRV), impairments, contingencies, share-based comp, and depreciation/amortization. - Sampling & data: Apply defensible sampling approaches; reconcile populations; leverage data tools (queries, pivots) to spot outliers and anomalies.
