Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
4/5
My role as a flying start was to work 9-5:30 everyday. The work I would complete was mainly given to me from my Connected Development, however sometimes my in-charge, manager, or other members of my team would delegate work. Meaning I worked across a variety of areas in an audit.
