Job Title: FSA Investment Supervisor

Overall Rated 9.3

★★★★★★★★★

The Role

Role Description

Due to the nature of the work I am not able to disclose any particular tasks I completed. I would say that I was given real work with real responsibility. Unlike other internship programmes, I was able to settle in to my department as any new member of staff would, and was given many opportunities to develop and network.
