    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
  • On a day to day basis, I ultimately support the Campaign Development Executives. This varies and on some days entails completing reporting tasks which provide insight into campaign performance and highlight any campaign issues. I will also be required to make updates and amends to any comms pieces following mid-quarter offer launches. I also engage in a lot of stakeholder management which enables and eases the cohesion and collaboration of all teams.


    Skills

  • 2. Have you learnt any new skills, or developed your existing skills?
  • My role has developed my stakeholder management skills massively. I have learnt how best to manage stakeholder expectations through effective communication. I have also improved with navigating Excel formulas and functions, along with other reporting platforms such as Business Objects etc.
