Kirsty Summers

I began with Coinford 10 years ago, starting without any prior experience in Finance. Over the years, I have had the opportunity to work in all three of Coinford’s Finance departments, growing both professionally and personally.

My career started in the Payables, where I was introduced to the intricacies of finance, I gradually developed my skills and advanced into the role of Supervisor, taking on more responsibilities and refining my leadership abilities.

Driven by my interest in the AAT qualification, I transitioned into Management Accounts. Coinford’s unwavering support during my studies, particularly during the challenges posed by Covid, was invaluable in helping me achieve the qualification.

Currently, I am working in the Payroll department, where I have discovered an unexpected new career path as a business analyst. The support and encouragement I’ve received have empowered me to develop my skills in report writing, leading to the creation of multiple new reports and a deeper understanding of the business’s needs.

Having worked across all three finance departments, I possess a comprehensive understanding of their operations. This insight has enabled me to implement new processes and identify areas for development, contributing to the continuous improvement of our financial practices.

The past 10 years with Coinford have flown by, and I am excited for what the next decade holds!
