Alliance Experts

What Alliance Experts does

Alliance Experts is a privately held French chartered accountancy and statutory audit firm (cabinet d'expertise-comptable et de commissariat aux comptes) headquartered in Tourcoing, Hauts-de-France, with operating offices in Grande-Synthe (Dunkerque coastal area), Paris (12th arrondissement), and London. Founded in 2007 by Charlotte Querret and Hubert Tondeur, the firm employs approximately 50 professionals across its four sites and has operated continuously for more than 17 years. It serves a horizontally segmented client base spanning micro and small enterprises (TPE/PME), mid-sized enterprises (ETI), listed companies, non-profit associations, public-sector organizations, growth-stage companies, and international firms operating in France.

The firm's core offering covers the full lifecycle of professional services: statutory and contractual audits under the commissaire aux comptes and expert-comptable designations; ongoing accounting, tax, and legal structuring; payroll administration and HR/social management; consulting on fiscal, financial, and wealth-management matters; business valuation for M&A, restructuring, donations, and shareholder entry; pre-acquisition due diligence covering accounting, financial, social, legal, and environmental dimensions; customized training on accounting, tax, and organizational topics; and consolidated financial statement preparation under PCG, IFRS, and US GAAP. Service delivery is anchored in a built-out digital stack comprising three proprietary assets — the Be Business Focus client platform, the Mon Amour de Comptable digital accounting solution, and the Telos mobile application — supplemented by third-party integrations with collaborative accounting platforms Cador and QuickBooks. Self-serve entry points extend to free company-formation (juridique.bebusinessfocus.com) and invoicing (mafacturesimple.com) tools that sit at the top of the funnel.

The business model is professional-services-based with all revenue derived from engagements (no productized software revenue disclosed); pricing is not publicly listed and is established through direct consultation. The go-to-market is sales-led and anchored in physical office presence and contact forms, complemented by referral partnerships with specialized law firms (Cabinet Pascal Pétrel and others) for matters requiring legal counsel. The firm has no disclosed parent company, external institutional investors, mergers, acquisitions, or funding activity, and operates as an independently owned partnership-style practice.
