As CFO of Alliance Automotive in the UK, I worked with Recentes group during 2023, on a project focused recovery of rebates, but also covering duplicate payments and correct recovery of VAT. By committing time to explaining our business model to the Recentes team prior to the commencement of the assignment, the Recentes team were then able to work independently with very little disturbance to the local finance team. We received regular and clear updates on the assignment on a monthly basis, and any points of negotiation were resolved quickly and pragmatically. We recovered a significant sum of money from the work of Recentes and also learned many points for improvement within our own processes. I would not hesitate to recommend the team from Recentes and will likely engage them again in the future.
