Success stories

Anna Polishchuk, Financial Director (years in the company: 2002-2016)

"FinExpertiza is a fast and ever growing company, and we always meet challenges of the ever changing world. Our leaders set a certain pace and style of work for the rest, giving them their enthusiasm. That is why FinExpertiza sets ambitious goals and achieves all of them."

Anna joined FinExpertiza in 2002 as a senior expert of the Financial and Analytical Department. For years of work in the company, Anna made a great career in financial management: first, she was promoted to the leading expert, later she was appointed Head of Treasury, then she came to run the Financial and Analytical Department, and finally, in 2014 she got the post of the Financial Director.

Quite logically, each step of Anna's career ladder was somehow related to the stages of the company's development, when we had to use new financial instruments and obtain new knowledge. For Anna, it was a perfect incentive for development and personal fulfilment.

Anna, rather modestly, explains her success simply by the fact that she loves her job and constantly broadens her horizons.

Marina Terentyeva, Audit Department Deputy Director (years in the company: 2005-2016)

"For me, FinExpertiza is a team of experts with a positive and friendly environment. Newcomers are given a warm welcome here; we are always willing to help if you have problems."

Marina started to work in FinExpertiza in 2006. At that time she was a very young expert, and our company attracted her with prospects of professional growth. As an auditor in the group, she always discovered something new, adopted the best practices from more experienced colleagues, and never hesitated to clarify something. Performing an auditor's work, Marina became flexible and quick to learn project details. The main thing for her was that she learned to find an approach to every person. Soon Marina was promoted to Senior Auditor. An auditor's job means regular business trips and Marina used them not only as an opportunity to see Russia, but also to learn how people from remote parts of Russia live and to see various factories from within.

Later Marina decided to develop her professional competence, so she moved to IFRS Department as an advisor improving her qualification at the same time. This helped her become a universal expert, well aware of the specifics of both the Russian GAAP and IFRS.

Since 2013 Marina has been managing projects and in 2014 she was appointed Audit Department Deputy Director.

Oksana Timonina, Deputy General Director (years in the company: 1999-2013)

"FinExpertiza was a good jumping hill for me. The company provided great opportunities for self-fulfillment."

Oksana's career path could be an example for many young experts who have only started to work in our company.

Oksana came to FinExpertiza in 1999 as an administrator. Then she mastered a new profession and received a second higher education, and got a position in accounting. Three years later she was appointed as Chief Accountant.

While working, Oksana continued her education. She got MBA in one of the most prestigious Russian business schools and in 2005 she became the Financial Director of the company. A year later Oksana was appointed the Deputy General Director on Audit. From 2009 till 2013 Oksana was the Deputy General Director, running several strategic areas.

Oksana's achievements were highly appreciated by the professional community. According to "1000 most professional managers of Russia" annual rating made up by Association of Russian Managers and the Kommersant publishing house, in 2005 Oksana Timonina was included in the list of 200 top financial directors. A year later, her name was included in TOP-14 financial directors in the field of professional services.

In 2013 Oksana Timonina left the company. Her professionalism, knowledge, skills and management style that she developed in FinExpertiza turned out to be useful in a big Russian company where Oksana was invited as a top manager. She is still working there having good memories of work in FinExpertiza. Oksana became one of best "graduates" of our company, we are very proud of her and wish her every success in her career!
