Alya supports Kindred’s finance and investment functions, ensuring smooth operations through tasks such as managing invoices, expenses, payroll, and maintaining accurate financial data. She works closely with the finance and investment Leads to provide support to the investees and socially trading organisations across the Liverpool City Region, assisting with the finances and investment processes to help them focus on creating community impact.
Before joining Kindred, Alya worked in corporate tax and strategy consulting, where she worked with clients on financial and operational strategies, analysed complex data, and supported business decision-making. She first moved to Liverpool to pursue her MBA at the University of Liverpool, and quickly fell in love with the city. Now calling it home, she is passionate about contributing to the growth and development of its communities through her work with Kindred.
Outside of work, Alya enjoys reading, practising yoga, and watching football with her boyfriend. She is also currently learning Japanese, which she describes as a ‘fun and rewarding challenge’.
