Overview
Usually would be working on an array of different projects throughout the day. This would range from organising documents and completing research for planning applications, to analysing public consultation responses and technical reports, to providing written summaries for fellow colleagues. There was often the opportunity to sit in on meetings and network with other departments and organisations.
Skills
Improved and enhanced communication, analytical skills and ability to problem solve. It has also improved my overall understanding of planning and the property sector.
Business Insight
There was often online seminars throughout the week led by different departments within the business providing an overview of what their team does and the role they have. The was also a number of in-person cpd sessions that I was able to sit in on and learn more about the diverse services the business operates.
Culture
