Dec 13, 2024
For Meghan Ross, working at Valmet isn’t just about numbers—it’s about building connections, both within her team and across the company’s operations. As a business analyst and cost accountant at the Beloit location, Meghan plays an essential role in generating the financial reports that guide Valmet’s strategic decisions and keep daily operations on track.
Bringing Financial Data to Life
Meghan’s role involves a dynamic mix of responsibilities, from preparing month-end financial reports to handling mid-month reconciliations and ad-hoc analyses. Collaborating closely with her manager and another business analyst, she ensures that Valmet’s financial reporting is accurate, timely, and impactful.
Her work took on new meaning after she toured Valmet’s Neenah roll shop and the Waukesha fiber plant. These visits allowed her to see the products and processes that her reports support. “It’s been very enlightening,” Meghan says. “Connecting the data to the physical objects we’re producing adds a whole new level of understanding to my work.”
A Culture of Support and Belonging
Valmet’s Beloit location fosters a workplace culture that Meghan describes as familial and welcoming. “Everyone here is so friendly. People are always smiling, saying hello, and treating you like a friend,” she shares.
This sense of community extends to her reporting team, which provides flexibility and support to accommodate personal needs, such as remote work and time off. Meghan values the balance this creates, enabling her to succeed both professionally and personally.
The atmosphere and the people surrounding me make all the difference," she reflects. "It's the culture here at Beloit that makes Valmet feel like home."
Looking Ahead with Optimism
As Meghan continues to grow in her role, she’s excited about the opportunities Valmet offers to connect her analytical expertise with the company’s broader mission. With a strong, supportive team behind her, she’s eager to expand her contributions and build valuable experience along the way.
For Meghan, success at Valmet is about more than just spreadsheets and reconciliations—it’s about feeling at home while making a meaningful impact.
