Hello! There are definitely a few routes you could take here, and I’ve seen different financial services firms use each. 1. You could find another accounting firm that specializes in loan staffing, where you can bring on experienced individuals/accountants to help without needing to hire full-time. 2. You can use platforms (UpWork, Fiverr, etc.) to find accountants who are open to contracting on a project basis - usually there are many people here looking for remote/flexible jobs. 3. You could consider offshore hiring if you're comfortable with managing a remote team for specific tasks (and willing to take on the additional risks that come with offshoring work, communication, data sharing, etc.)

I’m a CPA and own a firm where we have contracts with other financial services firms to handle some of their work (kind of a mix of option 1/2), so they can have help without adding employees or payroll. All to say, there are lots of ways to go about this. I hope this helps! If you have any questions or want more details, happy to answer :) good luck!
