Olindo Shehu

Olindo commenced his career journey with Deloitte in the United States in 2004 as an international tax consultant. He quickly rose through the ranks and became the trusted advisor to some of the largest companies in the world assisting with a multitude of complex tax implications and restructurings. However, his passion for entrepreneurship led him to relocate to Albania in 2009 and successfully build the Tax & Legal practice from the ground up both in Albania and Kosovo.

Over the years, Olindo has held numerous executive roles within Deloitte, most notably as leader of Deloitte CE Business Services Center and Deloitte CE Chief Operations Officer. On top of his current role as Deputy CE CEO, he is also the Managing Partner of Deloitte CE South, leading over 1,100 professionals and driving business development across 9 markets (Albania, Kosovo, Serbia, Montenegro, North Macedonia, Slovenia, Bulgaria, Croatia, Bosnia & Herzegovina), and Deloitte DCE Chief Financial Officer, overseeing all financial management aspects of 7 different geographies (Austria, Central Europe, France, Germany, Luxembourg, Portugal, and Turkey).

In his various leadership roles within Deloitte, Olindo has focused the strategy of the firm on service innovation, human capital development, operational excellence, and building impactful bridges with the community. His vision has contributed to Deloitte becoming the lead provider of tax and legal services in Albania and Kosovo, and an employer of choice for young aspiring professionals across all 9 CE South markets. As the leader of the Deloitte CE Business Services Center in Rzeszow, Poland, he successfully reformed the center’s governance and operational structures. Olindo has also initiated and implemented successful impact programs that have helped foster stronger bonds between Deloitte and the community.

Today, as a leader with more than 20 years of experience in the professional services industry, he remains committed to inspiring his teams and assisting his clients to bring about growth and innovation beyond individual and company confines, to benefit our environment and society at large.
