Independent Belgian professional services firm: accounting, tax, legal, and advisory
Vandelanotte is a 75-year-old, family-owned professional services firm operating across accounting, audit, tax, legal, risk, and HR domains. With 500+ employees across 20+ locations in Belgium and France, the firm is scaling aggressively — 81 roles posted in the last 30 days, with finance and legal driving hiring. The tech stack (Node.js, TypeScript, NestJS, PostgreSQL, Power BI, SAP S/4HANA, Dynamics 365) reflects a hybrid approach: cloud-native services layered on enterprise ERP and accounting platforms. Active projects cluster around digitalization (compliance tools, process optimization, digital dossier workflows) and M&A advisory, while pain points center on cross-border tax complexity, client growth management, and talent retention.
Vandelanotte provides integrated professional services to freelancers, SMEs, family businesses, and larger enterprises across Belgium, France, and Canada. The firm offers full-service coverage: accountancy, audit, tax & legal compliance, risk management, HR solutions, corporate finance, and wealth planning. Founded in 1948 by Roger Vandelanotte and now led by the third generation, it operates as a public company with 500+ staff across 20+ offices. The business model combines traditional advisory (M&A due diligence, tax returns, social audits) with emerging digital services (compliance tools for insurance brokers, digitalization assessments, operational process mapping). Recent expansion includes new office in Antwerp and active recruitment to support growing client portfolios and cross-border service delivery.
