Morgan Hunter’s Post

Wondering how the accounting, finance and tax job market is shaping up in DFW? You’re not alone! I get asked this question by almost every client I meet. So, I thought I’d share some helpful insights!: Specialized skills are in high demand - Professionals with expertise in SEC reporting, revenue accounting (ASC 606), technical accounting, specific accounting/finance software implementations, and tax strategy are getting hired fast. Top talent moves QUICKLY - If you find a standout candidate, act fast! Any hesitation can cost you. Flexibility is HUGE. While some candidates prefer the office (shocker, I know!), there are still those out there prioritizing remote options. Contract talent is on the rise - For short-term or specialized projects, contract professionals are game-changers. Retention is tough - To keep top performers, offer growth opportunities, competitive pay, and flexibility. If you’re looking to add accounting, finance, or tax talent (contract or direct-hire) to your team, DM me.

The risk of relying on just one finance person in your marketing agency Do they know the ins and outs of VAT for digital services? 💻 Can they navigate payroll complexities? 👩💻 Are they skilled in managing cash flow? 💰 Can they provide insights into your agency’s performance? 📊 Will they support you with financial data when dealing with lenders? 📈 Can they contribute to the strategic direction of your agency? 🚀 In my experience, expecting one person to handle all of this is unrealistic. Finance Directors are often not great at day-to-day tasks. Bookkeepers might struggle with strategic planning. Many Financial Controllers lack payroll expertise. So, what most agencies end up with is a finance manager in title, who often can’t move beyond basic bookkeeping. Agencies need more than this, but hiring a range of skills isn’t always possible. That’s why I offer a virtual finance department. We cover the salaries for roles ranging from bookkeeper to FD, so you can tap into all the expertise you need, without having to hire multiple people.

A solid finance function must start from the ground up. Without accurate data, it's difficult to make strategic / forward looking decisions. I've found it most effective to have a seasoned fractional CFO, coupled with a controller and FP&A lead, with solid bookkeeper support. This will of course depend on a company's size, complexity and budget. Here is how I think of the main functions with a good finance function: Bookkeeping and Accounting * Accounting Manager - reconcile banks, CC statements, record journal entries, manage clerks * AR clerk - record keeping for customer payments * AP Clerk - record keeping for vendor payments Controller * Lead monthly close process * Develop financial controls and policies * Tax return prep * Internal audit prep * If no FP&A, may manage budgeting and modeling Financial Planning & Analysis * Three statement and weekly cash flow modeling to support financial and strategic planning * Management reporting, forecasting, scenario planning * Partner closely with accounting to support month end close * This is a critical function, especially when raising capital * In smaller companies, CFOs do this CFO * Sets the financial vision for the company * M&A, capital structure, investor relations * Manages above functions * Can be fractional executive or full-time depending on business needs What am I missing here?
