Freelancer profile translated to English.

Description

I am Thierry Lapene, founder and CEO of the micro-enterprise TL-GESTION, specializing in the administrative and financial management of VSEs, SMEs, and STARTUPS. Located in South Essonne, in Etampes. 👉

✅I offer a part-time administrative and financial director (CFO) service locally, to support business leaders.

✅I mainly intervene in the management of administrative and financial operations, profitability control strategy, management control, cash management, and I ensure liaison with third parties such as banks, accountants, social and tax authorities, etc.

✅My interventions can be long-term, in the form of support for a few days per week or month. They can also be short-term for a specific project or to respond to temporary workload increases.

👉For you, the business leader, this is a less expensive solution than hiring a full-time employee.

👉My intervention as a part-time CFO simply allows you to adjust expenses according to your company's precise needs and your budget constraints.

✅I position myself as a true business partner to the leader and fully support you in structuring your company's finance function.

📢T/L Gestion is always listening to your part-time needs for good visibility of your business
