9 Years of Payroll, Zero Legal Errors for a Multinational Group

Project snapshot

• Client industry: Fashion & Wearable Technology
• Timeline: 09 years (Long-term strategic payroll partnership from 2016 to 2025)
• Project team: 03–05 consultants (scaled by phase)
• Scope: Payroll, expat compliance, HR documentation, digital C&B transformation
