Lina Zhong

Human Capital Manager - Boston

I came to Putnam as an original member of the accounting department. It was a great opportunity to build the accounting department from the ground up and provide a strong base for continued growth at Putnam. The thing I enjoy most about Putnam is the trust shared throughout the company. The company trusts that I am doing my job in an effective manner, and that trusts allows me to work diligently and effectively knowing I am providing real value to the company as a whole.

I truly enjoy working at Putnam, a company that makes decisions while always thinking about their core values – Collaboration, Excellence, Ingenuity, Grit, and Diversity. They foster creative thinking and allow their employees to challenge themselves as we each pave our own path for our careers. I have learned so much and have grown so much as a recruiter here and am excited to continue to see Putnam’s growth and success.
