Overview
This internship involved managing risk, helping prepare for monthly reporting meetings and managing minor financial changes within work packages.
Skills
This internship helped me develop my communication skills as I had to speak to lots of different people within the team to collate information for big monthly reports and manage risks affecting different work packages. I also learnt a lot more about how businesses work and different software packages Project Managers use including ARM and Primavera. This internship also helped me develop my excel skills.
Responsibilities
I was given a good amount of responsibility. I had enough responsibility that I the work I did was necessary and positively impacted the business, but I wasn't given too much responsibility that I was made to feel stressed or worried about the work I did.
Support & Guidance
There was a lot of support and guidance provided during this internship. There were a lot of digital training courses available throughout the internship, MBDA also provided in person training courses for specific software we were using. We also had a buddy who had previously been on an ECP program who was really nice and there to support and guide us on our internship. We also had a Technical Coordinator who guided us on our internship and on our future career in MBDA. Our managers were also really nice and supportive and were really good at giving us a variety of tasks to do and managing our workload.
Culture
There was a really nice company culture here at MBDA. Everyone was really friendly and supportive.
Your Impressions
