We believe that this type of modern, certified and accessible work environment with various integrated facilities will further benefit team wellbeing and development.

The strengths of the new space are important to us and we value its superior sustainability certifications, energy efficiency and excellent location. The new CMS Romania headquarters will have several conference rooms, numerous facilities for organising events  with our customers and business partners, as well as proximity and flexibility in terms of transport links. We believe that it will be the ideal space for our team of lawyers and tax consultants, both from a functional and wellbeing point of view.

With its excellent location, it offers quick access to parks, restaurants, cafes, and shops in Floreasca area.
