Marika has always been an innately numbers-person. The epitomy of reliability, we know we can count on Marika to supervise, monitor and evaluate all day-to-day accounting activities.

Melanie is Marika’s right hand – another numbers person whom On Site Malta just couldn’t do without. Melanie routinely recommends actions to resolve discrepancies if and when present and is a natural ‘investigator’. This wouldn’t be possible weren’t it for her attention to detail which we of course deem to be a great asset at On Site Malta.

Her can-do attitude makes working with her a pleasure. She may be the one of the youngest in the team – but she sure knows how to rise up to the challenge.
