"Since joining Heights Finance as a Branch Manager in 2013, I have enjoyed the benefit of internal transitions and promotions on multiple occasions.ย ย  Transitioning from my original branch to a larger branch in a different demographic, to a middle-sized branch in a combination of demographics, assisted me with being prepared to take the next step in my career.ย ย  As a result, of these experiences, I was qualified for a District Manager position in 2021. In 2024, I made a career change and with the support of my VPO, I was able to move into an Operations Trainer. During each transition, my supervisors worked to ensure I had the training, tools, and support needed to be successful and the level of camaraderie amongst my peers was unparalleled."
