While there is a pervasive attitude in the labor markets that employers do not adequately provide for their employees, I find at Linedata, if you demonstrate your commitment, good things will come of it. There are many opportunities for advancing your career and there are a wide variations of jobs that are performed here. If your a valued employee, show competency and commitment, your likely going to recognized and promoted to newer roles of greater responsibility in your career. The one thing I have learned during the course of my career is the following: If you choose to move forward in any direction and at some point your realize its probably not optimal or going to produce the benefits you originally projected, have the courage to admit maybe it wasn't such a good idea and seek out other alternatives.

What do you live about your job and the company?
I can't say that every day follows the same course and that is a good thing. Some days there is a focus on a certain activity which needs to be completed while other days there are opportunities to increase personal knowledge or share it. I enjoy meeting and sharing my ideas with other Linedata team members and when you see those ideas turned into reality, its quite an enjoyable experience. As an example, I frequently meet with Linedata's Product Management teams and describe a newer feature I would like to see added to our solutions. I am also actively involved in the prioritization of feature enhancements which means I have an active role in the solutions functional and technical roadmap.
Greatest achievements
Coming from a background where all I was exposed to was bank lending for 27 years, I never thought someday I would be working for a provider of products and services to the financial services industry and that I would enjoy it so much. Having the open mindset to adopt to something completely new and be a successful contributor is probably what I am most proud of. However, I can also say that I am a creative person and the organization promotes these types of activities which adds to the job satisfaction.

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.

Life (personal and professional) is truly a winding road. It is never straight ahead, paved perfectly, or timed exactly. As you move forward through your career, do your job the best you can and be curious enough to keep learning along the way. Eventually through experience, trial and error, and knowing yourself, you will find your place, discover where you want to be, and create the balance you seek in life.

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.
