PEOPLE

Meet our team

Our club of finance nerds

At Business Partnering Institute, we care about our people. And we believe in them.

We strive to build a culture of shared beliefs, trust, and freedom. A culture where individual development is just as important as the development of our business and where you hunt for new challenges instead of avoiding them.

We value individual freedom and giving employees the flexibility to structure their work life to suit their personal life. That means no time registration, no fixed office hours, and room to take on tasks the way you see fit, of course with all the help and support you would need from your colleagues.
