Linedata is a place where a person with strong motivation, excellent self management and a willingness to 'get dirty' will be rewarded. You can never give your whole life to work and at Linedata, I strive to maintain a healthy balance of work and life for my team and for myself. With project work, there will be times where we have to push hard and deliver extra efforts, but having strong communication and having fun must be part of it. Life happens outside of work and we cannot neglect it.

What do you like about your job and the company?
Working at Linedata has been challenging which is something I enjoy. I'm not from the financial services industry and as a provider of services, I have expanded my knowledge to all areas of the trading and portfolio management workflows and gained understanding of the variety of assets that our clients manage. Working on projects offer me a clear beginning and end so that with each new projects, there are different groups of people I work with and different challenges. The essence of teamwork is very important at Linedata and being in a large company, but still feeling small enough to be known is something that is beneficial to being a Linedata employee. The office is a very collaborative environment.
Greatest achievements
I believe in developing new talent and making sure that we have diversity in the make-up of Linedata's environment. As part of senior leadership, we have a responsibility of creating the environment that our employees work in and I work closely with HR to make this true at Linedata. In addition, working hard is only part of the equation as we also need to have good relationships within the organization. I never take credit for the work of others and as a manager, it is my responsibility to make sure that the work of my team is recognized.

Anyone who works hard and invests a lot in his work will be rewarded. Rigour and perseverance are, in my opinion, two key values to evolve within any organization. At Linedata, I was given a chance, I was trusted. Colleagues support helped me to improve myself and to lead our project to success.

I suggest don't be afraid to jump into something completely new, it most likely will be exciting, frightful, fun, stressful, but in the end worth it. Growth starts where your comfort zone ends, if you believe that you can do it, you will, if others can do it, why can't you. If you can't go forward and you refuse to go back, this is when you grow, just look around and you will see that there is always a way.
