Novacek has more than 20 years of experience in corporate financial reporting in the insurance and health care sectors, in addition to six years of experience in public accounting with Big 4 and regional firms. Prior to joining ERIE in 2008 as a supervisor in investment accounting and reporting, she managed the accounting, payroll and accounts payable functions for Parma Community General Hospital in Parma, Ohio.
As controller, Novacek will report directly to Gutting and oversee the preparation and filing of all internal and external financial reports under statutory and generally accepted accounting principles, including compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and the model audit rule.
