Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
I would provide budgetary management for the team, update centre websites, work with external agencies in briefing and creative/copy approval for CRM campaigns, adhoc projects and internal reporting distribution
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
Toyota places a lot of responsibility on their placement students and you are an important member of the team. I not only supported in some projects, but lead some projects myself with external agencies. I worked for Lexus which is a smaller team, so my responsibilities were important for the wider team also such as budgetary management.
Please rate how meaningful the work you were doing was
