French accounting firm modernizing legacy software with web-native tech
Cocerto is a 201–500-person accounting partnership in Nantes built on a modern JavaScript stack (NestJS, React, Next.js, TypeScript) actively migrating legacy accounting applications to web platforms. The hiring velocity is accelerating with a finance-heavy mix (19 finance roles, 6 engineering roles active), and the project list reveals a dual mandate: scaling their own Lynkia accounting platform while automating bank/invoice integrations and preparing IFRS consolidation reports — signaling a shift from pure advisory toward productized tooling for their client base.
Cocerto provides accounting, audit, payroll, HR, and legal services to mid-market companies across France. The firm has operated since 1971 and operates as a partnership with 201–500 employees. Beyond traditional advisory, Cocerto has developed internal digital products: Plume (accounting and invoicing software), Workplace (a client collaboration platform), and tools for electronic invoice compliance. Current focus is a major technical modernization effort — migrating their Lynkia accounting platform to a full web architecture and embedding automation for bank statement and invoice ingestion. The company is headquartered in Nantes, Pays de la Loire.
