Role: Country Managing Director (Ukraine) & Legal Operations Regional Manager
“After I joined AUTODOC, I realised that the company is completely free from any non-business, political, or prejudiced obstacles, which provides a wonderful opportunity for professional growth and sustainable business development.”
My role at AUTODOC
I’m a member of our AUTODOC Legal team. I hold two positions – overseeing legal operations in Ukraine, Moldova, and Kazakhstan, and serving as the active Country Managing Director (CMD) for AUTODOC Ukraine. These roles give me a unique opportunity to engage in both domestic business activities and cross-border legal work. While managing legal operations, I have the chance for extensive interaction and cultural cooperation among legal teams from three different jurisdictions across five time zones, all working toward implementing a unified AUTODOC global legal standard for daily business activities.
Sviatoslav is #ProudToBeAUTODOC
As a Country Managing Director, I am proud to oversee the operational management of our Ukrainian entity, which has over 1,000 employees. Despite extremely dangerous wartime conditions, we maintain strict business continuity, resilience, and adaptability in this challenging environment.
My dual work-specific role gives me wide possibilities to implement an AUTODOC legal and compliance approach and practices to ensure business sustainability within the countries we operate in. And on the other hand, to organise and manage one of the most adaptable country business units in Ukraine, which could provide tech, marketing, customer support, and financial services for our company, despite any critical geopolitical events in the world!
Saying ‘yes’ to AUTODOC
What I like the most about working at AUTODOC is the freedom and trust! After I joined, I realised that the company is completely free from any non-business, political, or prejudiced obstacles, which provides a wonderful opportunity for professional growth and sustainable business development. I believe that is one of our “secrets of success”.
We are all free here to be proactive, innovative, and inventive. The management team always provides opportunities to present and discuss ideas and new approaches. At the same time, the company in general and the Legal & Compliance team in particular have developed a strict corporate approach to ensure a respectful, trustworthy, equal, and ethical atmosphere within the company for all employees and customers, regardless of location. Regarding trust, I can admit that the company management is fully and consistently open to employees’ proposals and ideas – many of them have been implemented over the years. Despite the variety of locations and diverse business operations, top management always stays close to employees and can hear the voice of team members, regardless of their positions and locations.
