External environmental officer

As an entrepreneur, you are required to manage and organise your business in accordance with legal requirements. This also includes carefully assessing the need for and, where applicable, appointing company officers. We provide valuable support during this process—both by accurately determining your needs and by supplying qualified external officers.

By choosing an external officer from UMCO GmbH, you benefit from experts who not only possess all relevant qualifications but also bring extensive practical experience from a wide range of industries and in dealings with regulatory authorities.

Together with you, we implement the legal requirements and manage complex tasks effectively, pragmatically and reliably.
