Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
My day-to-day consisted of my weekly and daily tasks, usually centred around tracking the performance of sales and making sure we didn't have any supply constraints. My work was quite cyclical, if we had a new model launching I would have to go through a series of tasks to make sure the car was ready to be launched, often starting to process over 3 months in advance of the car being launched.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
My responsibilities started small and grew as the year went on, I ended up with a lot of responsibility and was always ready to take on more!

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills, or developed your existing skills?
My skills have massively developed while working at Renault. On reflection, I think the skills which improved the most were; communication, and knowing how to speak professionally both in-person and online. Planning & organisation, knowing when to start a project and how long it will take while balancing your daily and weekly tasks. Excel learning new functions to complete tasks more efficiently and faster and being able to fix your functions and formulas when they brake.
