D&K is pleased to announce that Leslie Fillion has been promoted to Vice President of Business Operations. In her new role, Leslie will continue to serve as D&K’s Business Manager.
Leslie, who holds a bachelor’s in finance from Boston College, joined a brokerage service company in 1998 immediately following college. She transitioned to a computer corporation several years later, where she was rapidly promoted to Vice President of Accounting & Finance. In 2007, Leslie left to start her own accounting consulting business, serving as an outsourced controller for small businesses throughout southern New Hampshire.
In 2009, she joined Yeaton Associates. During her 14-year tenure with Yeaton, Leslie helped facilitate the opening and expansion of the firm’s Bedford office, eventually serving as president of Yeaton MEP for three years, overseeing the operational side of the firm, including accounting, human resources, marketing, team management, and overall business strategy.
Since joining D&K, Leslie has worked closely with others to ensure Yeaton’s smooth integration into D&K. She has also focused on learning everything she can about D&K’s financial and administrative systems. Her responsibilities include contract administration, insurance procurement, negotiation, and administration. She also focuses on property management, office locations, and physical space needs and assists with strategic business opportunities.
Leslie is continually developing ways for D&K to improve in efficiency. Her recent contributions include establishing procedures for contract review, providing language for corporate policies and procedures, and lending a strong voice to insurance negotiations. She brings a “can-do” attitude and out-of-the-box, fresh perspectives to D&K’s management and operations.
