This August marks a personal and professional milestone — 12 years at Philip Morris International. It’s a moment that invites reflection, gratitude, and a renewed sense of purpose.
When LinkedIn reminded me of this anniversary, I didn’t expect the wave of support that followed. Over 75 colleagues, peers, and friends took a moment to react, comment, and share kind words. Among them was a message from Edvinas Katilius, VP Global Business Solutions at PMI:
“Congratulations Volkan! It is a real pleasure working together.”
To which I replied:
“Thank you so much Edvinas for the nice message! It truly means a lot and I appreciate the opportunity to work alongside you. Your support and leadership make a real difference — looking forward to many more milestones together!”
These interactions are more than digital gestures — they’re reminders of the relationships, trust, and shared ambition that define our work culture.
Over the past 12 years, I’ve had the privilege of growing through diverse roles, culminating in my current position as Manager, Treasury & Tax. Each chapter has brought new challenges — from navigating regulatory shifts to driving financial transformation — and each has been an opportunity to learn, lead, and contribute to PMI’s bold vision of a smoke-free future.
What makes this journey meaningful isn’t just the milestones — it’s the people. The mentors who guided me, the teams who inspired me, and the leaders who empowered me. To all of you: thank you.
As I look ahead, I remain energised by the road still to come. The transformation we’re driving at PMI is historic, and I’m proud to be part of it.
Here’s to the next chapter — and to continuing to grow, challenge, and inspire.
