Lori Warner
Financial Assistant
Keeping track of timely payments for all the Chamber of
Commerce of Huntsville/Madison County’s numerous
events requires meticulous attention to detail, the ability to
multitask and a team-based attitude. These are all qualities that
the Chamber’s latest Employee of the Quarter, Lori Warner, has.
Warner is responsible for accounts payable at the Chamber.
In this capacity, she handles the timely payment for services to
vendors and payroll to the Chamber’s employees. This keeps
Warner on her toes, but according to her, she would not have it
any other way.
“I assist with payroll as well as handling all the accounts payable
responsibilities. It keeps me very busy and that is just the
way I like it.”
To Warner, being named Employee of the Quarter is important
because of the respect she has for her fellow Chamber employees
and the professionalism they show every day working for
the community’s lead organization for economic development.
“This is such a great honor for me. I am thrilled to be part
of such a professional team. The team atmosphere here at the
Chamber really makes this a fun and rewarding job.
“Lori is smart, hard working and willing and able to research
and analyze options that provide solutions and efficiencies to
Chamber operations. She does it with a great attitude,” said Christy
Nalley, director of finance and administration for the Chamber.
Warner said that among the things she enjoys most about
working at the Chamber is seeing the numerous events it holds
and meeting new people.
“There’s always some exciting event that the Chamber is putting
on which has given me the opportunity to meet so many
fascinating and talented people.” •
