I worked with the corporate Shared Services and Data Management teams to conduct an internal audit of user documentation across the Supply Chain function. Day to day I met with supply planners, organised and analysed information on Excel spreadsheets, learnt and trained others on how to use a new site, reviewed and formatted documents, made PowerPoints and presented to teams from other divisions.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
Yes, I was responsible for managing a large team for my specific project, including senior employees.
