Hear from our team
"From the start I could tell there was really strong support from Finance leadership. I’ve been here for almost five months and not one day has been the same. There are always things that make the work interesting and not repetitive. Everyone on the team is extremely helpful, from my manager and co-workers all the way to the group VP."
Brandon, Senior Finance Associate
"When I started working three years ago, I noticed right away that there were several opportunities for me to learn and grow within the business! The leadership in our department focuses on giving us the time and resources we need to be successful in our jobs, and consistently provides new ways to help us learn more about Accounts Payable as a whole. With the support of both my co-workers and my management team, I have been able to thrive within my position and feel connected within the Charter community."
Nicolle, Sr. Accounts Payable Specialist
"I have the benefit of working for a team that consistently invests in and supports its people. As a direct testament to that, all of our Directors and most Managers are the result of internal promotions. I love working for internal audit because it provides a unique exposure to many different people and areas of the company. Whether it is developing audit plans, brainstorming with the team or presenting to Management - I enjoy and grow from what I do and the people who I do it with."
Shannon, Senior Director, Internal Audit Services
