Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
This role involved working multi-divisionally in many different areas of the business. Day-to-day order management was a key responsibility, working internally and with B2B customers. Wider responsibilities involved the improvement of tasks where possible, allowing for more personal projects to improve the efficiency of order flows.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
I was given responsibility right from the start of my internship, being given your own orders/customers to manage from start to finish in the order to cash cycle. Responsibility grew throughout the year as I was trained on more tasks and areas.

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills, or developed your existing skills?
I found communication to be a key skill that I developed during this role. Interacting with both internal and external stakeholders on a daily basis allows for development in both spoken and written communication. The regular use of excel for different purposes has also helped to develop this skill.
