Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
Worked in Performance Marketing, for 6 months working across various different marketing campaigns including: Affiliate Marketing, Events, Email Marketing, ABM & more!
I moved to Marketing Operations as part of the rotational placement where I got to experience contact acquisition, ABM, data analysis & more!
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
I was given a good amount of responsibility during my placement. The team placed their trust in me to complete tasks without micro-managing, which greatly helped me to get settled into the role. I was handed the responsibility to manage my own marketing campaigns, and left to run these independently whilst also being responsible with reporting performance to relevant stakeholders.

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills, or developed your existing skills?
I’ve massively increased my knowledge and confidence as a marketeer. The opportunity to run my own marketing campaigns gave me a clear insight into what goes into to forming data backed marketing plans. I also learned a lot about email marketing, affiliate marketing! I also got the chance to improve other skills such as my communication skills through engaging with internal and external stakeholders, as well as my public speaking skills.

Support and Guidance

How much support and guidance did you receive during your placement / internship?
I received great support during my placement from all of the people I worked with! Everyone was always happy to answer and questions the came up & always encouraged me to ask as many questions as I needed to! The company also has an extensive development centre with lots of helpful training and guidance available 24/7. The use of LEAD reviews also provides a great chance for guidance from your manager in a formal setting.
