    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
  • A morning call with my manager(s) to discuss our priorities for the day before a daily stand up with the remainder of the team. Depending on what the client requires at that point in time, I may be asked to complete a slideshow or work on an excel document. There will always involve a high level of communication as calls are frequent.
