A global payroll and tax specialist headquartered in Aberdeen has launched a new office in Frankfurt.
Activpayroll had been working with German partner Annette Weinel since 2002, but due to the successful strategic partnership decided to establish its own presence in Frankfurt with the existing German team transferring to activpayroll.
The new office provides German payroll and expat services and will aim to strengthen relationships with current and potential customers with German payroll and tax needs.
Alison Sellar, chief executive of activpayroll, said: “I am delighted to finally share the news of our new Germany entity. We’ve substantially invested in this office by upgrading the infrastructure, payroll software, IT and have started hiring additional people to support our growth. Germany is one of the many strategic countries activpayroll has identified with considerable potential, hence we expect substantial growth in the next six to 12 months”.
Annette Weinel, regional director in Germany, added: “I am extremely proud to be expanding the activpayroll brand in Frankfurt. A lot of hard work, commitment and enthusiasm have been put into setting up this office.”
