The Role
Had an amazing 12 months with the Research Team who where extremely helpful and a pleasure to work with.
I felt very valued by my colleagues. You're given responsibility straight away - and the work that you do has an impact not only on your team but the wider company too.
The managers in my team where very helpful and understanding - assisted me with my placement project and were always there if I needed to talk to them.
Everyday you usually have something different to do, busy periods can peak during month ends, and at the start of a new quarter.
Handed a lot of responsibility from the get go - submitted work for very senior members of the company.
Data Analysis, Excel, Powerpoint, Techedge, Oracle JDE - all transferable skills that will come in handy in any career.
The Company
Vibrant, Fast Paced, a very good balance of sociable fun and work.
Very well, the first few weeks you will be trained thoroughly on the various softwares needed to be used for day to day activities.
Subsidised Canteen
The Media Industry is very tightly linked - so experience in the industry goes a long way.
The Culture
Hammersmith is a very sociable area with a variety of bars andpubs.
