Congratulations Vicki Jara on being Monroe Sattler’s inaugural Employee of the Month for January 2021.

Nomination

In every organization, there’s someone who keeps the team on track, whether we realize it or not. At Monroe Sattler, that person is Vicki.

From managing our accounting books to ensuring our ERP system runs smoothly, from meticulously reviewing job‑related paperwork to handling all Human Resources duties, and keeping the front office organized, Vicki performs each task with exceptional skill.

Her behind‑the‑scenes work is critical: no project reaches completion without her review, vacation requests are processed promptly, and payroll is issued accurately and on time. Without Vicki, our operations would grind to a halt.
