Depending on the size of the company, they manage the entire finance department or parts of it. With their work, they ensure that the figures are correct, that the bookkeeping complies with legal requirements and that the company is also in a flawless position in tax matters.
Specialists in finance and accounting work in all sectors and have in-depth knowledge of financial and operational accounting, human resources and payroll administration, occupational pensions, social insurance and all relevant legal requirements.
