MEET THE TEAM: Mazen Kishtban, our Sr. Manager, FP&A in our Boston office!
▪️What are your favorite things about working at Centerfield?
The people and the culture! I really appreciate that Centerfield puts great emphasize on work/life balance and offers its employees flexibility. I’ve also had the privilege to travel and work closely with many amazing people across multiple departments and I look forward to building more relationships within the organization.
▪️What is something you are excited to work on in 2022?
Improving the collections process at business.com and applying it to the rest of the organization. A lot of people tend to forget that selling and delivering a product is meaningless if the customer doesn’t end up paying for the service provided. The exciting thing about this project is that we get to look at the different processes and systems used by the other entities in the group and come up with ideas and solutions on how to leverage and improve our existing technologies to create operational synergies.
▪️What are some of your personal successes outside of work?
Teaching myself to play the electric guitar during the pandemic. While looking for educational YouTube videos, I found a teacher in Turkey that teaches songs and techniques played by my favorite band, Dream Theater, and I’ve been taking weekly 6am classes with him. It’s been a challenge to wake up so early for these lessons, but it’s definitely a rewarding experience!
▪️When you were a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up?
A professional soccer player. Growing up in Lebanon, I really enjoyed watching and playing soccer daily with the other kids in the neighborhood. Very excited for World Cup 2022 later this year!
▪️If you had to be on any reality TV show, what would it be & why?
Below Deck – who wouldn’t want to be on a luxurious yacht for a couple of weeks and getting paid to travel and explore new destinations?!
