Mrs. Bora Kolbu\u00e7aj, Head of Finance, Lezha Water Supply and Sewerage Company<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/p>\n

In a continuance of SHUKALB\u2019s interviews with employees from water supply and sewerage utilities, this month we interviewed Mrs. Bora Kolbu\u00e7aj, who is the Head of Finance of the Lezha Water Supply and Sewerage Company.<\/p>\n

Mrs. Kolbu\u00e7aj has a degree in Economics from the University of Tirana and has done several specializations studies and received further certifications. She has granted the title “Internal Auditor in Public Sector Units” by the Ministry of Finance, and the title of Professional Master in “Financial and Banking Management” from the Albanian University.<\/p>\n

The following are questions that were addressed to Mrs. Kolbu\u00e7aj:<\/p>\n

How long have you worked in the water sector?<\/strong><\/p>\n

My career in the water sector began in April 2002 when I was assigned by the Lezha Water Supply and Sewerage Company in the Finance and Accounting Department where my role was focused on the reconciliation of cash registers and debits. \u00a0While in this position, my colleagues and I did a very good job on the identification of main debtors. \u00a0In 2004, I conducted a scientific social survey that had a huge impact on public awareness regarding the sector of water supply and it specifically improved the work and the relationship between the Company and its customers.<\/p>\n

In April 2005, I was appointed Head of the Sales Department of UK Lezha, which was my first challenge towards progressing in the water sector. \u00a0During this period my ego, in a positive sense, and my professionalism in the water sector had a new trend: the Water Regulatory Authority strengthened its competencies and its impact on the sector; SHUKALB, through conferences, seminars and training increased cooperation between water supply and sewerage companies towards a new approach of managing; the General Directorate of Water Supply and Sewerage, together with other stakeholders, started working on the strategy of the water supply sector; and the Central Government, in general, increased its interest in the water supply and sewerage sector. \u00a0In this context, UK Lezha took a new path of development by setting up a strategic development program that covers the period up to 2017. Within a short time, we created a computerized billing system; improved the services at existing bill payments centers and introduced online bill payment; identified and fixed all illegal connections, and increased the sales and profit of the Company.<\/p>\n

In January 2012 I was appointed Head of the Finance Department. \u00a0During this period, I have completed studies and acquired the title Professional Master in “Financial Management and Banking”. Being motivated in a professional and correct way by my cooperation with foreign donors, my work in this position received new directions, increased commitments, and new challenges which commenced immediately.<\/p>\n

UK Lezha was selected, along with several other companies, to be a beneficiary of the project financed by KFW and SECO, for water supply, and collection, treatment and disposal of wastewater.\u00a0 Donors, during the feasibility study and implementation of the project, implemented strong rules and set high targets in three levels for the implementation of performance indicators to benefit the project. \u00a0During this time, we had become part of the institutional strengthening project which had a positive impact. \u00a0My professionalism and knowledge in the water sector needed to be changed from economic areas to engineering finance.\u00a0 My challenge and commitment is at high level and I am proud that we managed to achieve the goal. The project is at its final stages and UK Lezha is heading towards a positive, new perspective.<\/p>\n

What do you like most in your job? <\/strong><\/p>\n

Although the job is tiring and requires unlimited commitment; I feel good, successful and appreciated for my contribution and the work I do. \u00a0The Company has a perfect management, because it is an institution that is truly fair and correct, and my colleagues are proficient in their profession. They are committed, although we debate sometimes regarding the best way the work should be done, at the end, we find an understanding and have created a climate of trust that helps on achieving the objectives of the Company.<\/p>\n

What are the major challenges in your current job?<\/strong><\/p>\n

The major challenges are the reorganization of the water supply services, and collection, disposal and treatment of wastewater in Lezha, according to the new territorial administrative reforms. This requires a physical inventory, evaluation, registration, and transfer of stock from the former local government units of 64 villages, into the asset and accounting structures of UK Lezhe.\u00a0 However, the main challenge lies in adapting this reorganization with the planned development strategy of UK Lezha, storage performance and financial stability.<\/p>\n

Describe your working day<\/strong><\/p>\n

My work as Head of the Finance Department begins each day with a flash meeting in my office with my colleagues, where we take the necessary information and reconcile the day’s work. After that I communicate with the offices under my supervision and the online payment centers, in order to ensure that everything goes well with our customers.<\/p>\n

At 8:15 am, together with the Heads of Departments and Heads of Divisions, attend a meeting with the Director of the Company, Ing. Zef Ma\u00e7i, for about 15 minutes, and then I deal with my daily affairs of commercial management, while monitoring the work of my subordinates.<\/p>\n

What is the message you want to give to the younger generation, who want to work in the water sector?<\/strong><\/p>\n

To younger generations, I would say that the greatest friend in life is work, but working in the water sector is more worthy than other jobs, as you become a friend to all people, because water is life. \u00a0This is true regardless of the position you work or will work in the water supply industry: manager, accountant, engineer, lawyer, plumber, water pump operator, meter reader, heavy machinery driver etc. \u00a0Although the administration job is important, so are the water supply professionals who are the people that give life to the system, produce and provide water.<\/p>\n

So, in the water sector, you will be requested and appreciated everywhere because practice is the mother of knowledge.[:]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
