Overview
Supported the previous EMEA North president with her customer engagements. This involved preparing customer briefings, writing emails on behalf of the president to other C-Level executives, taking actions from customer meetings and following up internally. I also supported with customer facing events, including Wimbledon and the Monaco Grand Prix, preparing the CEO with customer briefings of those that were attending.
Skills
I have significantly improved my communication skills, having had to talk to new colleagues every day and send emails on behalf of the president.
Responsibilities
It very much varies depending what team you are involved with. My previous manager was really keen for me to take over her role as customer officer when she went on leave, however following the SAP restructuring, the teams changed and I was no longer given the same level of responsibility. Sometimes the ‘intern’ position is limiting and people will keep you in a role, despite your wish to progress.
Support & Guidance
I had weekly 1:1 calls with my previous manager, which was amazing as she was keen to push my development. However, the structural reorganisation has affected the support since then, as my team has completely changed, leaving me without a team and manager.
Culture
Everyone at SAP is lovely and will always be willing to help you. You’re really encouraged to get involved with as much as possible!
Your Impressions
I’ve loved doing a placement because it has given me an opportunity to develop my own skills and enter a completely different environment to university. I have been very lucky to be able to get so involved in so many different parts of SAP, and whilst I feel that I could have been given more responsibility, I have still really enjoyed my time here.
Yes
Show you interest in the business and what we do and be genuine and authentic! SAP values great people above all else!
