  • Improve close procedures, reconciliation standards, and recurring accounting processes.
  • Support ERP implementation, optimization, and transformation initiatives, including requirements gathering, testing, process design, and post-implementation support.
  • Contribute to cross-functional initiatives that improve accounting processes, reporting, internal controls, and operational efficiency.
  • Identify and implement practical AI and automation opportunities that reduce manual work, improve data quality, and enhance existing processes while maintaining appropriate controls.

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
