Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
Discuss with brands over email or video call to plan their quarterly or monthly exposure plans. Book in any exposure or cashback increases that a brand may want to run. Conduct meetings with clients to discuss performance and how we can best support their marketing aims.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
Yes - we have full responsibilities for the discussions with brands. I often have a manager in my client meetings, however this is more for support and I still conduct these myself. I have taken on various projects where I might work with another team member, but I am given lots of responsibility to manage my time and workload.

How much support and guidance did you receive during your placement / internship?
There was a great support system and lots of guidance from any within my team.
