Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
In my role, I support the business and marketing functions by preparing key reports for the camera market. This includes sell-out and inbound reports to track sales, stock movement, and inventory levels. I compile weekly summaries and deliver monthly presentations on market performance, trends, and competitor activity.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
I feel that I had a lot of responsibility from day one, which was great as it allowed me to gain valuable work experience. Being entrusted with tasks like preparing reports, managing stock data, and contributing to presentations helped me build confidence and develop a deeper understanding of business operations.
