Today, he supports business owners and management boards in making sound financial decisions – from accounting and taxes, through cost optimization and profitability analysis, to management reporting, financial planning, and business model design.

Why Black Fire Consulting?

After years of working in large organizations – from academia to stock-listed companies – I realized the greatest satisfaction comes from working directly with entrepreneurs. Where every decision really matters.

I wanted to build a company that doesn’t just “do accounting,” but truly supports business growth – with experience, but without corporate bureaucracy. That’s how Black Fire was born.

And the name? That’s a different story – but it holds both calm and energy. Like a good financial strategy. 😉

How do we work?

Black Fire Consulting is built on the foundation of my experience, but every project is supported by a trusted team of specialists. Together, we deliver both standard accounting and complex projects – from consolidation in capital groups, to controlling and reporting systems, to profitability analysis, financial planning, and decision-making support.

Our approach?

Clear, experience-based, and tailored to each client’s needs. Instead of templated services – real support aligned with your company’s development stage.

From the first consultation through process structuring to ongoing support and growth – we work transparently, with no surprises and full focus on results.

We don’t look for shortcuts – we look for the best solution.

Technology + experience

We use modern tools – from ERP systems to BI solutions and process automation.

We’re supported by Leonardo – my AI-powered digital assistant who helps analyze data, track regulatory changes, streamline processes, and find solutions in real-time.

This allows us to react faster, advise better, and focus on what really matters: our clients, their business goals, and financial decisions that count.

Because technology is just a tool – what truly matters are the skills, intentions, and values behind it.
