    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
  • For my placement I worked on two brands supporting on the launch of new products as well as the delivery of full 360 marketing campaigns. On a day-to-day basis I worked on a number of different projects which included: planning and delivering in-store and OOH marketing activations, creating and distributing gift with purchase incentives to stores and supporting with sending out products to influencers to name a few.


    Skills

  • 2. Have you learnt any new skills, or developed your existing skills?
  • I have developed strong organisational skills throughout the year by managing workloads on two different brands. Through this I learnt how to effectively prioritise tasks as well as how to successfully manage expectations. Furthermore, I have learnt how to work well in a fast-paced environment and further developed my ability to problem solve and be agile. I have also developed my presentation and communication skills by presenting to senior stakeholders within the business.

    Responsibilities

  • 3. Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
  • I was given a huge amount of responsibility during my placement. This is something which has played a key role in my growth throughout the year. I was given full ownership of many important projects such as planning OOH pop up events, creating gift with purchase incentives and reporting key data to internal teams. My line manager and team were incredibly supportive in ensuring that I was given lots of responsibility throughout.
