Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
Day to day, I look at the performance of the current media mix and how effectively it generates MQLs for Sage Intacct. I am responsible for updating key documents which are used to make informed strategic decisions. I attend calls with internal stakeholders and the media agency on a daily basis in order to improve performance and share feedback.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
In short yes - I have had a variety of tasks and responsibilities which I have led on during my internship which have made me feel like I am playing an important role in achieving the organisation's goals.

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills, or developed your existing skills?
I have developed a strong understanding in key platforms such as SA360, LinkedIn Campaign Manager, Meta Business Suite, and DV360 which we use for paid advertising, as well as Salesforce which is a CRM system.
Using Excel on a daily basis has significantly improved my ability to use this platform as I am now confident with a variety of shortcuts and formulas.
