For 24 years, Kate Powell has been part of the AGF Group family. Her exemplary career has allowed her to climb the ladder within the company.
In 1994, Kate began as Collections Officer at AGF Steel in Ottawa. Her main focus was credit and collections for the Milton and Bowmanville locations as Ottawa, at that time, was the head office of numerous locations. In 1998, Kate became Credit Manager. Working in collections and invoicing enabled her to gain valuable knowledge about the rebar industry as in this role, one needs to understand a lot more than just the money end of things.
In 2007, Kate moved into the position of Controller under the guidance of Mark Clarke. “I remember my first experience with the financial statements and the training. It was a bit of: move this here, copy this there, enter that number in this spot, balance to the TB and you are good. I was terrified and soon realized that I had my work cut out for me and much more to learn but I was bound and determined to learn it all and take in as much as I could.” She spent around 10 years working on that position.
In recent weeks, Kate Powell has been appointed General Manager of AGF Steel in Ottawa.
“I am very proud to call AGF my work family and I have been so very fortunate to work and get to know so many incredible people along the way. I am very excited about this new position and look forward to many successful years ahead.”
On behalf of senior management and all the employees, we would to congratulate her and wish her every success in her new role.
