Senior GR Advisor
Marek Grzegorczyk
Experience in clashes with bureaucracy
Marek Grzegorczyk has been working at Sarmatia Risk Control since May 2018. For 9 years he sat on the other side of the desk in the tax office, so he perfectly knows the mechanisms that guide controllers. In 2023 alone, he closed 43 difficult cases related to tax inspections in Lublin and the surrounding area. Marek does not deal with theory – he takes the files in his hand and looks for gaps in the officials' protocols that allow avoiding unfair financial burdens.
Offices don't wait, which is why Marek operates in a specific rhythm. Analyzing the first batch of documents from a client usually takes him up to 48 hours. In March 2024, he helped a local wholesaler owner beat a penalty from 14,300 PLN to just 1,650 PLN, demonstrating procedural errors in a PIP inspection. He doesn't promise miracles if the case is hopeless. He always tells it straight what the chances are for winning in an administrative court, and when it's better to settle. Concrete defense requires honesty, even if it is painful for the client's wallet at the start.
At Sarmatia Risk Control, Marek is responsible for Government Relations, i.e., direct relations with state authorities. It is he who goes to the office so that you don't have to spend the whole morning there. Peace in the company is for him the lack of missed registered mail and a clear action plan in case of a controller's visit. (By the way, Marek drinks exclusively black coffee without sugar, which helps him maintain focus while reviewing hundreds of pages of invoices at 7:00 AM).
The end of stress with inspections starts the moment Marek takes over the power of attorney. He has already represented 87 local entrepreneurs, from small workshops to transport companies with a fleet of 12 cars. Every case is different, but the goal remains the same: protecting the company's financial liquidity against account blocks. Marek believes that errors in documentation happen to everyone, but not everyone has to pay the highest possible rate for them. His approach is simple – he reads the regulations until he finds a leverage point that the official overlooked during the inspection.
