We are excited to announce and welcome Magdalena Makin, RTR Group Reporting Analyst at J. Murphy & Sons as the new co-Chair of the FA&R Network.
Magda is CIMA qualified and has more than 20 years’ working experience in various finance and non-finance roles.
Her first role was export specialist. Although she enjoyed her 7-year career in Commercial, her dream was always to work in Finance.
An opportunity arose and she took a role working as a finance and administration manager in small retail company. Then she moved to McBride Poland when she was gaining her experience in various finance roles across credit control, treasury and eventually reporting. As a part of the structure changes, she took over financial reporting for Germany and Luxembourg. And this is where her journey with Shared Service Centre has started.
Following further expansion, Magda has relocated to UK 7 years ago and took up the role of the Group Finance Accountant in the Group Finance in McBride SSC. Her focus was on alignment and automatization of the financial reporting from the different locations and support with further transfer of the activities from the divisions to SSC.
Magda then took up a role in ESCADA SSC in Manchester and was responsible for commercial finance reporting. Currently Magda is working for Murphy Group SSC as a Group Reporting Analyst responsible for the financial reporting.
Magda has gained her experience in reporting in various sectors such as Retail, FMCG, Manufacturing and Construction as well as in multiply countries in Europe, North America, and Asia.
In her private time, Magda is very much outdoor person. She is a keen alpine skier however, since moving to UK she has swapped it partially to walks in Peak District and Lake District.
We are looking forward to having Magdalena as part of our Network Team and look forward to working with him this year. The first online network event is taking place on the 20th of April and we look forward to sharing details soon.
