Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.

My role varied a lot, day-to-day was always different. For example on day I could be creating assets, helping run an event and working with agencies, then the next could be excel and budget management!

Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?

Lots, I have a great relationship with my manager so I was given responsibility, knowing that if I was in doubt I could ask her.

Please rate how meaningful the work you were doing was

Company Culture

What was the company culture and general atmosphere like?

So fun, we had a massive cohort of placement students, and we all made sure to do socials. Outside of placement students, the company is relatively young which is fun.
