Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
My job role varies depending on the time of the year and the projects that the team are supporting at the time- no day is ever the same. I am involved in weekly forecasting calls as well as pull a report daily to support the operational side of the business. I have also been involved in multiple projects across the business ranging from purpose topics to the more sales/operational based projects which has given me great exposure across the business.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
I was given a lot of responsibility in my role. I ran a careers fair from the SAP side virtually on my own being trusted to co-ordinate speakers, presentations and ensure that everyone was able to attend. This was a really great opportunity and from there I felt more confident and was able to go on and do lots more with in my placement.

Company Culture

What was the company culture and general atmosphere like?
From a virtual view the company culture is really inclusive but also fast paced. No day is the same and there are constantly new thing's happening in the business making it a really exciting organisation to be a part of. There is also a real emphasis on supporting young talent, making them feel included but also listening to their views.
