SX Business Services Employee Spotlight: Janine Parrella
April 2, 2021

Senior Accounts Payable Team Leader

Janine is a college graduate, a wife, a mother, an outstanding employee and the next employee in the spotlight for SX Business Services.


After graduating in 1995 from Billerica High School, Janine attended Nichols College. There she earned a degree in Business Administration, with a concentration in marketing. After graduation, she joined HealthGate Data Corporation in Burlington, MA as a Marketing Communications Specialist. After 3 years, the excitement of city life enticed her to move to South Boston, where she worked as an Executive Assistant and Showroom Manager for Haworth, Inc, located in the Boston Design Center. During her 5 years managing trade shows and showroom events, Janine met and began dating her now husband, David. They married in 2006 and moved back to the suburbs. While working in Waltham for a start-up called StarRF, Janine met SX Business Service’s President and CEO, John Fleming.


In 2009, she had her son Samuel and then her daughter Jacqui was born in 2011. Through the years, she kept in touch with John. She was fortunate to stay primarily at home while her kids were young. However, once they became school age, Janine came to work for SX Business full-time.


Now at age 11, Sam is in 5th grade and loves hockey. Jacqui is 9 and in 4th grade. She is an All Star Cheerleader and also participates in dance. Their fur baby Derek is 8 and was rescued 7 years ago.  He loves to cuddle, chase squirrels, play with other pups, and bark at everything.


In their free time, they enjoy family dinners and s'mores by the fire pit.  They also spend their summers enjoying the pool and entertaining friends and family. They love to go to the beach and many of their vacations are spent with family who live in North Carolina. David and Janine enjoy kid-free dinners, spending time with other adults, and going to country music concerts.


What do you like most about your job, and/or working for SX?

What I enjoy most of about working for SX is the ability to be home during this pandemic.  I also appreciate all its employees and the hard work everyone has been demonstrating.  Times are tough, and there is a lot of work to be done.  Through all the uncertainties, we have been able to achieve great things.  Keep up the good work!


If you could have any other job what would it be?

If I could have any other job, I would be an interior designer.  I enjoy shopping, decorating and creating warm environments for families to call home.

Why Real Estate Companies Are Turning to SX Business Services when Outsourcing Accounts Payable

By Lindsay Van Kauwenberg • July 22, 2026
Managing accounts payable in the real estate industry is far more complex than simply processing invoices and issuing payments. Property owners, developers, management companies, and real estate investors must manage a constant flow of vendor invoices, maintenance expenses, utility bills, insurance premiums, property taxes, and capital improvement costs across multiple properties. Without dedicated financial processes and oversight, accounts payable can quickly become a bottleneck that impacts cash flow, vendor relationships, financial reporting, and overall business performance. That's why more real estate organizations are turning to SX Business Services for outsourced accounts payable solutions.

Why Outsourcing Is Becoming a Competitive Advantage in Real Estate

By Lindsay Van Kauwenberg • July 8, 2026
Outsourcing non-revenue-generating accounting functions can help real estate firms reduce costs, improve efficiency, and focus internal resources on growth initiatives. Tasks such as accounts payable, bookkeeping, payroll, reconciliations, and financial reporting are strong candidates for outsourcing. By evaluating costs, selecting a real estate-focused provider, and communicating changes effectively, firms can streamline operations, improve accuracy, and create a more scalable organization.
