Since I started to work seven years ago during my studies, I enjoyed taking over more and more responsibility and get the right range of working experience and now I'm an expert in my field. I think one of the most interesting tasks of the group accounting team is the participation in group-wide implementation projects and to work together with highly motivated colleagues from all VIG companies.

That means when the Vig is planning any kind of reorganizational measures we support them for example with Mergers and Acquisitions or due diligences.
