    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
  • I support, educate, and create strategies for the six Business Units so they can drive profitability globally. One on my projects is to help grow and drive Quick Commerce, the rapid home delivery model. Another project is to drive market reporting accuracy by creating quarterly reports displaying the Home Care Digital Commerce performance. I also lead the Home Care Digital Commerce education platform within Unilever


    Skills

  • 2. Have you learnt any new skills, or developed your existing skills?
  • I've developed many skills since starting my placement, one being my analytical skills by analysing data from various CMI studies and picking out relevant parts to make informed decisions and translating it into a visual strategy. I've learnt to be a leader whilst leading the Home Care Digital Commerce community as I need to be confident to inspire others, especially as I am at the forefront of this community.
