I was tasked with consolidating a new management system for the individual contracts held by Honda. This project allowed me to liaise with department managers as well as the Operations Director in 1-to-1 meetings. Subsequently, I took the initiative to track project timelines to ensure the new system was accurately set up before the upcoming audit. Fortunately, I was recognized and rewarded for managing this project alongside my month-end responsibilities, reflecting my ability to prioritize and organize tasks effectively.

Skills such as collaborative working, leadership and presentation have been the main focal point. Honda presents various opportunities for you to step out of your comfort zone and really develop as a person.
