Overview of the Role

Overall, how would you describe your experience at Virgin Media O2?
For me, it was a journey of development and self improvement from start to finish. The scheme allowed me the flexibility and freedom to move between teams and roles, which gave me a complete picture of how the business operates from different perspectives. I had the opportunity to connect with my other graduate cohorts, and made friends and grew my network in a way I don't think would have been possible via a traditional channel of hiring.
What are the main responsibilities of the role and which elements of the role do you enjoy the most?
Each grads individual experience will be different based on their rotations. Some things available on the digital grad scheme were:
Financial planning
Risk Management
TV Product Strategy
