Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
The role involves a lot of regular reporting to account managers and senior sales staff of sales figures - this is mainly weekly and monthly reporting. A lot of the other responsibilities are ad hoc and this increases during the busy periods of the year. Much of the work is based on excel using functions such as pivot tables etc.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
I have been given a lot of responsibility. My team is primarily made up of interns and graduates, meaning we have been given autonomy to work on projects and pieces of work that we find suit us. When ad hoc queries come through we are usually left to our own devices to figure it out which certainly helps progression - however there is always support when required.

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills, or developed your existing skills?
