Overview
Compiling reports and engaging with departmental stakeholders to ensure preparations for upcoming changes as carried out as desired. Communication of ongoing changes for alignment purposes.
Skills
Improved business communication. Understood the criticality of alignment within stakeholder negotiations. Developed strategical planning to solve complex problems.
Responsibilities
I was integrated into the team from day one and treated as an equal which empowered my to take responsibility for my own topics and carry them through to completion. This has been a hugely beneficial developmental experience as having ownership within real world scenarios facilitates a hands-on learning approach.
Support & Guidance
My colleagues and manager were very happy to offer advice and assistance whenever I required but they always considered and respected my views and enabled me to go on my own learning journey each time.
Culture
Within my direct team the culture was excellent as we trusted each other and enjoyed working together. There was a slight disconnect to the wider company culture due to corporate structures but that was still a positive experience
Your Impressions
I enjoyed my placement for three reasons. I was given many opportunities to be involved in valuable work and develop professionally based upon those experiences. I was also able to further my understanding of which parts of manufacturing roles I particularly enjoyed and so would want to experience further in a future career. Finally the working culture particularly of my local team made coming to work good fun.
Yes
It is a very good insight into the UK automotive manufacturing industry where you will develop and enjoy the work. The follow on opportunities are not quite as exciting because the potential for dynamic early career development is missing
