Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
My role is the Operational and Legal Risk Management, on a day to day basis I review our health and safety policies. I send these policies out to all required people for feedback and then upload these policies onto our documentation system. I also review / update our legal register by carrying out a full evaluation of compliance on each individual piece of legislation. This is in conjunction with administrative activities.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
I have been given a lot of responsibility, I often have meeting with our CEO and CFO, some of the time presenting to them. I am trusted to carry out my duties alone and I am trusted to work where I want / need to on the day e.g., home or in one of our two offices.
