    Business Insight

  • 3. What was it like understanding all about the business and potential roles available?
  • It was really useful to have departmental overviews as for an outsider of the business, it is really difficult to navigate the structure of each of the different departments within Savills. It opened my eyes to the breadth of the career options available and what the day-to-day tasks and responsibilities involved in those roles.
