Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
I work in a team which is focusing on the preparation for results day and the academic year. Meeting with different VQ teams to ensure all key dates are met and all key events are done. I would be working on a deck each week that allows information and progress to be shared across the team.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
Yes I was, I am very grateful for the work that I was given as I am constantly learning work. I have also got the opportunity to sit in meetings with VP's and Project managers. Working closely to them and being given tasks that are helping me develop more skills.
