Eileen's extensive experience makes her a key contact and go-to person for our clients. She began her impressive financial services career in 1987, assuming a series of supervisory and management positions at Merrill Lynch, including Operations Manager and Section Manager, overseeing three Supervisors and forty employees in the Quality Assurance Department. Her responsibilities were wide ranging, spanning from leading Process Improvement initiatives to presenting to Senior Management at the Women's Network Forum.
