Economy and investing has interested Tim ever since he was little and so he learned interpreting accounting and analyzing financial statements already as a teenaged investor. Which quickly led to an experience-rich career in the financial management field: investor, controller, accountor, financial manager and entrepreneur. Now also a certified Procountor instructor.

This fellow has endless amounts of war stories from large public companies’ ledger bunkers as well as from saving small companies from the fangs of bureaucracy and other business challenges. Tim can no longer be bothered with paperwork, which is why he is a pioneer in electronic financial management. He has also participated in the development of various financial management softwares. Hence Select is a completely digital accounting company – not even a printer can be found at the office.

Tim is motivated by problem solving and the success of his clients. When you have worked as an entrepreneur for a long time yourself, you can relate to the situations the clients are facing, and can rejoice seeing their businesses developing. When Tim isn’t reading beat literature or trading cryptocurrencies, he tends to society with a light dash of civil disobedience.

“You learn from mistakes and entrepreneurship is always worth it.”

Lotta is an experienced management tasks organizer. She knows how to make things flow smoothly and how to minimize unnecessary hassle. When everything goes by the process you have time to relax too – which isn’t a given for this young mother by any means. When Lotta isn’t organizing clients’ management or optimizing internal processes, she is growing a new little guy into this world. Adorably energetic Miltton has been a familiar sight at the Select office where this young boy gets to know financial management in baby steps. This relates to Lotta’s motivation at work and home: seeing others grow and develop.

“Development always takes you a step further.”

This punctual number cruncher is motivated by clear and predictable accounting, but the curious mind is also fascinated by the complexity of the human mind. Helen is not only a financial management professional of over 10 years but also a life coach.

Working at an accounting company also combines both of her worlds, the bureaucratic side focused on numbers, and the humane side. Meeting, supporting and seeing the success of different kinds of clients makes toiling with bureaucracy rewarding. Well made accounting is satisfying for Helen’s pedantic mindset: it’s wonderful to see clear and concise accounting.

Helen’s hobbies also require punctuality and dealing with numbers: keeping 20 horses tame is easier said than done, but thankfully she has her family and an Australian cattle dog to help.

“Don’t be afraid to confront yourself - decide what you want - act accordingly.”
