In 1899 he obtained his Certified Public Accountant license for the state of Pennsylvania.〔
At the age of 21 in 1891 Sterrett joined the public accountancy office of John W. Francis, where he became a partner in 1893.

In 1924 he was called back to Europe, where he spent two years as the American member of the Transfer Committee that managed reparation payments under the Dawes Plan. He received decorations from four countries, Belgium, France, Germany, and Italy, for his work on this committee."〔Barbara D. Merino "(Sterrett, Joseph Edmund (1870-1934) )" in: M. Chatfield & R.
