I have worked with Olena as a colleague on a number of cross-functional initiatives while her work in the Production and EHS departments in Philip Morris Ukraine. She is a strong professional keen on new initiatives and continuous improvement in the organization. Her work at every new assignment is reflected in successful projects that produced very effective business results. Olena has always demonstrated a high level of ownership and commitment, being capable of taking increased level of responsibilities in new areas of business and cross-functional projects. An example of such a successful project was the attestation of working places for the Ukraine market, which required cross-functional interaction outside of the Manufacturing area. Olena is an Achiever. She was able to lead production lines in her Business Unit to great manufacturing results: Production uptime of more than 82% (which was a record result for an affiliate). She has a deep knowledge of manufacturing practices and possesses combined with strong people management skills. Olena can easily operate in any manufacturing environment.

Olena was a young specialist hired to the Quality Assurance department at Japan Tobacco Ukraine in 2000. She came to the Company when an old "Post-soviet" style factory was transforming into a modern production facility and part of multinational. The new production model required drastical improvements in manufacturing practices and uptake in quality performance and management. Despite the lack of experience in the tobacco manufacturing field Olena quite quickly got an excellent understanding of the technological processes and organized the work of the analytical group in the Quality Assurance department. Soon after the start-up, she was assigned to a QA Chief Analyst position direcrly supervising several employees.
