Streamlining global finance for a PE-backed SaaS company. 

A fast-growing Norwegian SaaS company had reached a turning point. With finance operations stretched across six countries, multiple systems and numerous local providers, they needed more than a replacement for their outdated accounting system. They needed a unified, scalable model for growth. 

That’s where Amesto stepped in. Operating as a single brand and team, Amesto AccountHouse leads delivery in the Nordics, while Amesto Global supports all other markets. Together, under the Amesto umbrella, we provide seamless cross-border finance, payroll, compliance and business solutions, ensuring clients experience an integrated model for growth, no matter the location.

Following rapid expansion, the client was facing a fragmented finance function with inconsistent processes, duplicated effort and limited visibility. By combining Amesto AccountHouse’s deep Nordic expertise with Amesto Global’s international experience across the UK, US and Germany, we built a coordinated, end-to-end approach. The client gained one point-of-contact in each region, a joint delivery team and the confidence that their operations were aligned and supported across every jurisdiction. 

This unified model brought structure and clarity to a complex setup. Together, we redesigned their global finance function by mapping existing workflows, identifying bottlenecks and rolling out a cross-border framework that removed complexity without disrupting day-to-day operations. Central to that transformation was implementing Xledger as the ERP across all key markets and aligning processes and statutory requirements, ensuring accuracy and compliance everywhere the business operates. 

The result is a single, integrated operating rhythm that replaces country-by-country operations with a clear operating approach with standardized processes, coordinated delivery and reduced administrative burden. With Amesto AccountHouse and Amesto Global delivering as One Amesto, the company now has a scalable finance function that supports growth, enabling smooth acquisitions and new market entries.

Expanding into Spain can be an exciting opportunity, but success requires understanding the local market, legal requirements and operational nuances. Here are a couple of tips to help Founders navigate their Spanish market entry smoothly.

At Amesto Global, our mission is to simplify business for our clients. For our Client Service Delivery Team (CSD), that mission comes to life every day, whether it’s helping a start-up incorporate across multiple countries or managing day-to-day accounting and reporting for established multinationals. This team ensures smooth, seamless financial operations across borders, cultures and time zones.  

We sat down with Silke Hodes, Kate Nicholas, Shona Considine and Caitlin Teran, who lead our delivery teams across Limerick, Barcelona and New York, to learn more about what makes their work unique, how they collaborate across countries and how automation is reshaping the client experience.

When asked to describe the team in one phrase, three words come up again and again: 'architects of financial integrity,' 'dynamic' and 'supportive.' Together, they capture how the CSD team thrives, bridging client needs with expert solutions, adapting quickly to new challenges and supporting one another to deliver positive outcomes.  

For Silke Hodes, Associate Director – Accounting in our Barcelona office, it’s the teamwork that stands out: “What makes this role unique is being part of a truly team-oriented environment, where knowledge is shared openly and everyone contributes to delivering the best outcomes. It’s a team effort, always.”  

That sense of collaboration is matched by the variety of work the team experiences. As Kate Nicholas, Director – Client Services in our Limerick office, puts it: “It’s the diversity of people, perspectives, and projects. Every day brings something new, and I get to work with talented colleagues across borders, all focused on exceptional client outcomes.”  

For Caitlin Teran, Associate Director – Accounting in our New York City office, it’s the global nature of the work that makes it so rewarding: “What excites me most is the global collaboration. I can be working with colleagues in Barcelona at the start of the day, aligning with our Limerick team by mid-morning and supporting clients in the US in the afternoon. That international scope keeps the work dynamic and meaningful.”

Today, the CSD team supports over 180 clients in nearly 20 jurisdictions, ranging from fast-growing tech start-ups to well-established global enterprises. Collaboration stretches across our offices in Limerick, Barcelona and New York, serving clients in the UK, EMEA, the US and APAC.  

“No two weeks are ever the same,” says Kate. “Each client has unique needs, whether it is incorporation, onboarding or ongoing accounting and reporting and rely on us as an integrated part of their finance function.”  

Typical client requests include:

• Guidance on tax and payroll registration across multiple countries   

• A single, trusted contact across all entities for efficient advice   

• Streamlined workflow setup and process guidance

• Cloud-based accounting system for consolidated KPIs 

• Compliance with local accounting rules 

• Accurate reporting and a trusted partnership across entities

Beyond these standard services, the team manages everything from monthly accounts to year-end financial statements and tax filings. By tailoring support to each client’s unique needs, they ensure smooth operations and provide a single, reliable point of contact across multiple jurisdictions.  

Shona Considine, Associate Director – Accounting in our Limerick office, sums it up perfectly: “Cross-border service delivery at Amesto Global means working seamlessly across jurisdictions, time zones, and regulatory environments to provide clients with a unified, consistent experience—no matter where they operate. We’re not just processing numbers, we’re building relationships with clients across borders, helping them with clarity and confidence.”
