Jacob Høfler
Senior Consultant & Ass. Sales Manager
Who are you?
My free time is spent renovating the house, with my 5 children, and my wonderful wife Lina. And then then some is spent on my hobby business byhøfler, where I keep my accounting skills up to date.
What do you do at Crossbord?
I am a Senior Consultant / Ass. Sales Manager. But titles are titles. I have a hand in everything from payroll processing to light consulting and sales, but it is also me who makes sure that stuff in the office is hung up and that it is hung up straight and level.
How did you find your way to Crossbord?
Suddenly one day I got a message from Magnus on LinkedIn, and in less than 2 weeks I was employed in a temporary position for 3 months. Quickly, on the first day, it developed into me being offered 6 months and when they where up, I got a permanent position as a payroll consultant. After a bit more than a year I changed to my current role.
What do you love most about your job?
First of all, that no day is ever the same. And then being part of a team that takes responsibility for both customers and colleagues. If Magnus had not written, I would never have known that the company existed, but now I could not imagine working anywhere else. At Crossbord, I am challenged every day both with exciting tasks, but also intellectually as I develop professionally and learn new things every single day.
When do you feel successful at work?
I find that I am successful when I complete my share of the tasks, and have created space to be able to take on new tasks by optimising and planning my time.
Can you tell us a fun or surprising fact about you?
If you count individual courses, I am the office’s most well-educated, and I always win on having the most children among colleagues.
Jacob Krushave
Director
Who are you?
I am basically a nostalgic who finds joy in the simple things. That’s why it’s a big part of me to laugh and be happy, and I have a home full of collectibles that remind me of the joys of childhood. For example, Disney and LEGO are a hit!
What do you do at Crossbord?
I am employed as Director and lead our Delivery Team. I have the overall responsibility of ensuring that our customers receive the high standard of service, they expect.
How did you find your way to Crossbord?
I started as a Tax Consultant (part-time) while I was still a student. After finishing my studies, I continued at United Tax Network and have been along on the entire journey of becoming Crossbord.
What do you love most about your job?
Going to work every day is super fun. We laugh out loud daily! Crossbord is characterised by the fact that we succeed in combining complicated tax problems with payroll processing. I am sure that this is the right model for solving projects where employees have tax liability in several countries as part of their work. It makes every single day unique, exciting, and interesting!
When do you feel successful at work?
I often have successful experiences at work. It is a success when my colleagues have good experiences with our clients, so that our clients succeed with their projects.
Can you tell us a fun or surprising fact about you?
Beauty and the Beast formed the basis of my marriage. We got engaged in ‘Belle’s Castle’ (DisneyWorld, USA) and our first dance was to ‘Beauty and the Beast’.
Linda Fuchs
IT Specialist
l. fuchs@crossbord.dk
Who are you?
I am very much an introvert, so I love doing something by myself, for example going on a fishing trip or doing some gardening. I also really enjoy computer games, movies, board games and painting miniatures.
What do you do at Crossbord?
I am responsible for IT processes and digital optimisations of our company.
How did you find your way to Crossbord?
I started as a student employee. In August 2021, I was employed full-time as an IT Specialist.
What do you love most about your job?
That every day is different, and that I get to work with a plethora of systems and programs etc. That I get to navigating the labyrinth of implementing proper system integration and thus optimizing our workflows. It is like a big puzzle, and I love puzzles!
I love working at Crossbord due to the flexibility it offers, the type of work I do and the colleagues I work with. Being an IT specialist means I get to work with a lot of different IT systems and I get to implement automations and integrations, which help make my colleagues work-lives better and easier. Nothing gives me more joy than seeing a solution I made be deployed and hear the happy responses from my colleagues as they figure out what the new software can do for them, that the old one couldn’t.
When do you feel successful at work?
When I have delivered a solution to a problem at the office, and knowing that I have made the lives of our colleagues easier by doing so.
Can you tell us a fun or surprising fact about you?
I like listening to heavy-, speed- and trash metal, and I rode a motorcycle when I was younger, until I totaled it.
Line Jørgensen
IT & Marketing Consultant
Who are you?
I live with my boyfriend in Aalborg, and in my free time I like lifting weights, reading, and watching tv-shows and movies. I spend a lot of time with family and friends. And my variegated plants – a hobby that was introduced to me by Linda, actually.
What do you do at Crossbord?
I am sitting between two chairs; in IT where I work with technical development and support of our business processes, and in Marketing where I have a finger in everything. So basically I combine IT and Marketing disciplines to support our team with MarComm and MarTech.
How did you find your way to Crossbord?
I started as a student helper in IT, and when I graduated I was hired full time. Since I have a background in marketing and communication, Magnus thought it would be a good idea to make use of these skills as well.
What do you love most about your job?
The team. My job tasks are very fullfilling but mostly I love being around my colleagues. Especially when Rain, our office dog, grants us a visit. The management team is focused on team dynamics and everyone’s well-being, the vision of the company is pretty neat, and I like how our core services are offered to large international companies but the end user is actually their employees.
When do you feel successful at work?
It really tickles my brain when I find a good solution, when I can optimise something, or when I have a good time with my colleagues -we laugh a lot. My colleagues are very good at giving constructive feedback to help me.
Can you tell us a fun or surprising fact about you?
I thought I was an extrovert, but I’m not. It just turns out that ADHD got me jumping around like a social butterfly.

What is your impression of working at Crossbord so far?
Great people, much knowledge, and an exciting but professional workplace
Do you have anything you particularly hope to work with at Crossbord?
International tax. As much as possible, even through I have had a course with international tax, there is still so much to learn
