Finance Manager

Great finance role

Opportunity

One of the really interesting things about #stratamanagement is the paths people walk into the role and industry. I’ve worked with and met people in the #strata manager chair with backgrounds in law, real estate, property maintenance, finance, engineering, finance&banking, admin, small business ventures, accounting, military, hospitality and even local government - to name just a few. The really fascinating thing to me is that the previous experiences tend to have little correlation to the success or enjoyment one finds in doing the job. It comes down to personality and drive, more than anything. The stuff we can’t teach. Sure, different skill sets or backgrounds may make a difference in the early going. For example, an ex-legal will pick up that side of things and discussions surrounding legislation and regulations more quickly etc., but it mostly levels out in the wash. The two biggest factors of longevity & success seem, to me, to be; 1. Outcome oriented mindset and drive - the person has to CARE & be equally pragmatic. 2. Personal organisation skills. The outcome focus matters in a service-field. The organisation is required to enable me or you or anyone else to be able to deliver them. This is just my observation. I would love to hear what other people’s takes are in the comments. And one last note … it’s going to cost more than $1.20 a day to deliver great outcomes from a person and company that DOES care, and CAN deliver. Cheap is always more expensive. And strata people are from everywhere and are awesome :) #ownerscorporation #bodycorporate #property

This is a role myself and Alison Greenhill really enjoyed and was an important step in both of our careers. It is an exciting role where you will advice on significant projects, lead on the statement of accounts and support budget setting and monitoring. #CIPFA #ACCA #FINANCE #LOCALGOVERNMENT #OPPORTUNITIES #ACCOUNTANT

What a week!! We have been interviewing candidates for lawyer and clerk positions for multiple cities. The team is starting to form up nicely and it won't be long until the first file carrying lawyer and clerk arrive to start their own The Cooperators journey. We also eagerly await our AVP colleague in Alberta to join the leadership team! News on that to follow next week. We are still looking for great lawyers and clerks to join us. Do you hear that Ottawa area?! Click on my profile picture to learn more about the opportunities. Some of you may have seen a repost I shared earlier this week about a different perspective on "KPI". Key Performance Indicator is not the only meaning. As a leader, KPI's are not just for measuring colleague performance. Leaders also need to live up to these other KPI's: Keep People Inspired, Keep People Involved, Keep People Interested and; Keep People Informed. This is a challenge I'm taking upon myself as we build an industry leading team of P&C litigation professionals at Co-operators. Involved, Inspired, Interested and Informed. Join us and hold me to the standard I want to set or make it a standard you live up to with your own team. Have a great weekend everyone!

This is a circular like as Bangladeshi Students Revolutionary type or approach or attitude or style. Now, the Bangladesh is not Khaleda/Hasina's country. Thus we have to do a revolutionary mood/approach/style. Because, surely our purpose is executive/manager start their charisma to get investing $1 and ensure profit $18-28. Finally they will get $9-17 incentive and company get rest. Happy Revolution Enjoy the Revolution Wait for further consequence of Revolution.

Meet Karolina Pilsniak who works at our Birmingham plant. What is your position? How long have you been with the business? “I am now working as a Credit Controller for the Birmingham plant. I have been working in this role for 4 weeks; previously, I worked in production for about 7 years.” Can you describe your job in 3 words? “Responsibility for finances.” What does your average day look like? “Every day is different. It is hard to describe an average day because something new happens every day. Every morning, I do the daily tasks that are part of my responsibilities. Then I check e-mails, reply, and write messages to clients. Then, depending on the day, I perform various tasks assigned to me. Since I am new, I also learn new things every day.” What do you enjoy most about working at Lander? “One of the things I like most about Lander is the atmosphere there. All my colleagues are very nice and helpful. It is also very important that I am given the opportunity to learn and develop.” What did you want to be when you were young? “The credit control position is one of the jobs I wanted to pursue. I finished school in this field in Poland. I have always liked and wanted to work in a field related to finance.” Where would you go on your dream holiday? “My biggest holiday dream is to go to Hawaii. Enjoy the beautiful, sunny weather, explore the island, and spend time on the beach.” What do you like to do to unwind? “To unwind, I really like spending time with friends, but I also like to sit alone with a good book sometimes. I also like to go for walks and spend time actively.” (Karolina is pictured with Group Credit Control Supervisor, Helen Lander) #meettheteam #employeeengagement #employeevalue #employeeappreciation #manufacturing #ukmanufacturing #ukmfg
