Overview
I work as part of two global IT teams that support local markets with customer collaboration and providing an excellent user experience. I am responsible for: - scheduling and leading meetings with stakeholders - ensuring all documentation is kept updated - project managing phases during agile development - developing communications - publishing communications across multiple channels - managing budgets - tracking finances and costs
Skills
I am much more confident now when presenting and communicating with senior stakeholders. I have also developed my soft skills and have learnt how to handle difficult situations and manage expectations. My organisational skills have been sharpened especially as I have had to work all year virtually and therefore have to be really organised and efficient in order to meet deadlines.
Responsibilities
I was given a lot of responsibility during my placement and ended up working across many teams because I was very enthusiastic and keen to make the most of my placement year.
Support & Guidance
As part of my programme, I had support from a contact manager as well as a line manager which really helped me settle into my role. The guidance I received from both was exceptional.
Culture
Incredibly welcoming! I have never met any of my team face to face but I have built very strong relationships because the culture is very friendly and inclusive.
Your Impressions
I have loved my placement at Unilever, it has been the most challenging adn rewarding experience of my professional life.
Yes
Research the industry and the company. Unilever has a very rich history and is one of the companies leading the way in sustainable living so showing you understand the company and it's outlook will help demonstrate your passion for the company.
