Gábor Szarka brings more than 25 years of experience in the financial and consulting sectors, including 10 years at Grant Thornton Hungary, the company tells the BBJ. Prior to joining the firm, he gained valuable expertise in banking and real estate development at Big Four companies.
At Grant Thornton Hungary, he has led diverse areas, from business valuation and transfer pricing advisory to outsourcing, and has played a pivotal role in developing internal functions and launching innovative advisory services. He has also been instrumental in aligning the firm’s local operations with the global network.
As managing partner, Szarka sees his most exciting challenges as developing the team, deepening collaboration, and enhancing the visibility of the Grant Thornton brand in Hungary.
“I would like Grant Thornton to be as highly regarded and well-positioned in Hungary as it is in the United States or Western Europe, and for colleagues to truly feel proud to work here. This shared culture, unity, and professional excellence will be one of the cornerstones of our success,” he emphasized.
“Throughout my career, I have always been guided by openness, mutual respect, and integrity. These values are especially important in a profession where human relationships are just as vital as technical expertise,” Szarka added.
Under Szarka’s leadership, the Hungarian member firm will continue to support clients at the highest professional level, while further strengthening its market position by expanding both existing services and new capabilities.
