How We Work

Yacht accounting administration requires structured processes, accurate records, and clear approval workflows. Invoice processing, reconciliations, payroll support, and expense tracking are essential to maintaining financial oversight.

Virtual Pursers provides shore-based yacht accounting and financial administration support, working within your established onboard approval processes and accounting systems. We support your financial structure, ensuring records remain accurate, organised, and up to date.

Bec & Dom
Virtual Pursers

“Our experience thus far with Virtual Pursers has been a very positive one. The depth of Virtual Purser’s network of contacts and knowledge within the industry has proven to be an added benefit to what is already a service of the highest standard. On a large project such as this, the Purser has to be dynamic enough to handle their tasks with a high degree of independence, and using a Virtual Purser allows them to do so without distraction. Furthermore, their invoicing structure allows for a simple and transparent payment process. We are looking forward to continuing our relationship with Virtual Pursers well into the future.”

“I was introduced to VP as a solution when my admin assistant was forced to focus solely on our marketing. Today I have a scalable team of assistants with in depth yachting knowledge which, apart from handling the mundane admin tasks, go and solve every challenge thrown at them. This has decreased my personal workload and further increased the quality and scope of our services. Now our Pocket Superyacht owners have Invisible Superyacht Pursers on board!”
