Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
My role is to maintain and grow communication between our customers and us. I have to constantly work with different people from different department in order to solve day to day challenges that arise. I specifically take care of a certain vendor and also have to stay in touch with them.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
So far I have been giving a reasonable amount of responsibly. Although I would definitely prefer having more. Sometimes I feel myself doing some repetitive tasks throughout the day. I am aware it is only two and a half months into my placement, and slowly I have been given more to do.
