Angela Coleman had been looking for an adventure when she noticed that UVA was in search of an Assistant Director of Payroll Services.
Coleman had been serving as payroll manager at Willamette University in Oregon for over five years. She enjoyed working in higher education and had been an integral part of the university’s implementation of Workday in 2016.
At the top of her professional game and with her two sons grown and on their own, she was open to change. The result is that she’s now a part of the UVAFinance Payroll Team!
Coleman joins the ranks of a handful of others who have joined the UVAFinance team during the pandemic. She has begun her role working remotely from Oregon, with plans to move to Virginia in the spring/early summer of next year, depending on the national situation. The difference in time zones means her workdays currently begin around 5:30 am since mornings are often the busiest for payroll professionals.
The delay in Coleman’s move to Virginia may postpone the exploration she’s excited to do, but one definite benefit is that she can spend more time before her departure with the newest addition to her family, her first grandchild!
An ocean lover, Coleman says she’s looking forward to getting acquainted with the Atlantic as well as visiting the wealth of historical spots in our area.
“This position had everything I was looking for: I love working in higher ed, I love Workday, and I just can’t wait to experience the East Coast,” she says.
Besides the ocean, Coleman’s other happy place is enjoying the beauty of the outdoors, so she is very much looking forward to exploring the Blue Ridge Mountains.
When we all return one day to the office environment, you’ll recognize Coleman’s space by the plethora of football memorabilia will contain. She’s an avid fan of the 49ers, Kansas City, and the Steelers.
