Finance Manager, Verizon Wireless

>> My names Julie Abbot. [phonetic] I work at Verizon Wireless and I'm a Finance Manager. What I do is I support our direct channel which is retail stores, telemarketing, customer service and I do financial analysis and reporting for those different business groups to help them make better business decisions. I generally am a morning person and I get in probably around 7:30. And I usually start my day by catching up on emails. And you know depending on the particular day I usually have between four and six meetings. And then in between that time I work through the different reports that I have to prepare as well as working with my team on making sure that I'm you know checking you know what they're doing. And you know a lot of what I do is you know digging into the data and really looking at a lot of numbers and really taking raw data and helping make it presentable and more of a useful tool. And you know depending on how the day goes, sometimes I'm able to leave at 5:00. Sometimes I'm here a little bit later. I have three children so I do you know value that I work somewhere where I'm able to have that balance between my work and my family. So but you know that's a typical day. I don't travel frequently in my role that I have now but I have been in roles where I do have a little bit more travel, which when I did have that it was actually a good thing because it gave me you know exposure and contacts with different offices around the company.
