I am an experienced Certified Accountant (IHK) with over 10 years of professional experience in accounting, taxes, and financial statements. Since 2021, I have been working as a self-employed freelancer and interim professional under the name Menges Consulting. I support companies on a project basis – both operationally and conceptually – with all finance-related tasks.
My main focus areas are general and sub-ledger accounting, preparing monthly, quarterly, and annual financial statements according to HGB and IFRS, handling tax matters (income tax, corporate tax, trade tax, VAT), and intercompany reconciliations. In addition, I have extensive experience in analyzing and optimizing accounting processes – both in standalone financial statements and in a group environment.
I have successfully completed projects in various industries, including at schwa-medico GmbH, DMG MORI Finance GmbH, Yaskawa Europe GmbH, NTT Germany AG, Orpea Deutschland GmbH, and other mid-sized and international companies.
I work in a structured, analytical, and self-starting manner – contributing reliably in daily operations, closing phases, or special topics. Thanks to my broad system knowledge, I can quickly familiarize myself with new processes and tools and work very efficiently remotely.
