Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
I would have to look over leases, look at service charges and fill out forms based on budgets for properties, go on site visits and look at what needs to be done to ensure that the property is at a good standard and look for improvements that could be made.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
Yes, I was toured around properties while doing audits and had talks with building managers to ensure that everything in the properties were up to standard.
Please rate how meaningful the work you were doing was
