    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.

    • My role involves working with 2 central function teams: Environment and Sustainability. These teams are incredibly overstretched so I work to support them on a variety of CSR and Carbon-related tasks, and other areas too. I have been given responsibility in net zero strategy research and volunteering promotion.

    Skills

  • 2. Have you learnt any new skills, or developed your existing skills?

    • I have developed carbon accounting based skills as I was able to undertake a week long training course on ISO 14061. I have also developed my data manipulation and analysis skills, as well as qualitative analysis for a variety of strategic goals.
