Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
My day-to-day varied depending on projects and stakeholders requests.

Conduct data research and data analysis to spot new trends and areas to gain additional revenue.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
After proving myself I began receiving more and more responsibilities, now I have a well diverse portfolio of projects that I supervised and completed that have assisted the company business.
