After 31 years, Jennifer Sosnoski is retiring, and we wanted to take a moment to celebrate her career.
Jennifer started in Accounts Payable and Human Resources in February of 1995, at what's now our forge tooling company. Since then, she's spent time in nearly every role a plant has to offer.
After a few years in AP and HR, she became Office Manager, running the entire office while still handling her original duties. From there she moved into Quality Manager, right as the plant earned its ISO 9001 certification. Then came Operations Manager, overseeing the whole operation, which she says was her favorite role of them all.
Her path didn't stop there. She spent about four years at corporate as Manufacturing Controller, overseeing accounting across Gemini Group's plants, then chose to come back to the floor full time. She worked her way from HR Generalist back up through Production Manager and Operations Manager again, then became Plant Manager of our forge tooling company. From there she moved to our aluminum extrusion tooling company as Plant Accountant, and eventually took on her current role as Metals Group Controller.
Ask anyone who's worked with her and you'll hear the same things: dedicated, knowledgeable, easy to approach and many even referring to her as "Queen Bee".
"I loved what I did. It was never boring, and every day was different," Jennifer says. "But more than anything, the people you work with are your family. In my career I was able to meet many new people at all the various plants, and they are all so memorable."
In retirement, she's looking forward to watching her grandson Levi, finally getting to some overdue projects, and a cross-country road trip out west with plenty of stops along the way.
Congratulations, Jennifer. Thank you for 31 years.
