Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
4/5
I would move placements each year to get a feel for the business. I would be given tasks and projects to work on that actually made a difference. I was mainly office based but there were opportunities to get out the office and see what we worked on.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
4/5
Its been really good. I've been given loads of support and its given me many opportunities.

There are stretch projects which we can do that may be STEM events or things we do outside of our scope.
