  • 1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
  • On a day to day basis, i work on audits that are usually allocated on a weekly basis. As a placement student , we are allocated audits working alongside seniors. As we progress, we then slowly partake in audits with less support , performing these independently.
