    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
  • I provide additional resource to client-teams within the business, frequently picking-up ad-hoc work required to address a particular regulatory challenge or work required for a particular client-facing engagement. This aids the analysts/associates/consultants in performing their role.


    Skills

  • 2. Have you learnt any new skills, or developed your existing skills?
  • I am learning more with regards to the Investment market, how different businesses fit within the industry, their roles, and the value they produce for their respective clients. I also develop further my existing skills in time management, numeracy, communication, presenting, and organisation.

  • Please rate how meaningful the work you were doing was
