Aider establishes a presence in Halden and opens its fifth office in the Østfold region in less than two years. – We have experienced strong growth in Østfold, and the timing is now right to invest in Halden, says Robin Olsen, Regional Director for Aider Østfold.
With existing offices in Sarpsborg, Fredrikstad, Moss and Rakkestad, Aider now has nearly 70 employees in the region – and continues to grow. The goal is clear: Aider Halden will become a key player in accounting, payroll, advisory and sustainability services for the local business community.
– Halden has always been on the map. We are now ready to build a strong local team, just as we did in Sarpsborg, says Olsen.
Several colleagues from the existing Østfold organisation will join the initiative, and Olsen is confident that the office will grow quickly:
We aim to reach a double digit number of employees in Halden in the near future, and we know that many skilled professionals with ties to the city are looking for exciting local opportunities.
As a Halden native himself, Olsen highlights the citys industrial traditions and its focus on technology and innovation as key reasons for the establishment.
– Halden has a strong business community and a close collaboration with Østfold University College, making it the perfect base for a forward looking competence house like Aider.
Aider will not only provide accounting and payroll services but also offer:
• HR and organisational development
• Sustainability reporting and ESG advisory
• Technological solutions and automation
• Strategic financial advisory
– We know that businesses want flexible partners. With Aider Halden, the local business community gains access to a broad range of services delivered locally, says Olsen.
Tale Vestby, Senior Manager and Head of Recruitment for Aider Østfold, believes that Halden now offers unique career opportunities:
– With us, you will have the opportunity to specialise, shape your role and take part in exciting growth journeys. We combine local stability with the ambition level of larger cities, she says.
Aider is now seeking talent with both experience and recent education – within finance, technology and advisory.
You can work on everything from automation and AI to larger client projects and onsite assignments. We are building the competence house of the future – and now also in Halden, Vestby concludes.
