Why we’re different

We didn’t learn offshore staffing by selling it. We learned it by building our own CPA firm.

James Lee started his career at KPMG and spent more than 20 years in public accounting. In 2015 he founded Lee CPA Audit Group and grew it to more than 80 professionals with a dedicated offshore team of accountants and auditors.
Every part of how we recruit, train, secure and support our people is something he first had to get right for his own clients. Other staffing agencies place offshore staff in CPA firms. We run one.
“I built CPA Staffing Partners because I needed it myself.”
