    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
  • I spent the first part of my placement working on 2 agile software development teams gathering the requirements for a new IT system being developed by the company. I did this by working with my team and business representatives to understand the current process and how this was changing to become the new processes. The second part was working on a waterfall delivery team to help the current IT systems to keep going and looking after the "Business as usual" processes.
