The Role
Gave me a real understanding of how a finance team works
My team was so friendly and supportive and were great fun to work with.
Any problems I had my manager helped me every step of the way. They know you are an intern so they are very supportive in your learning.
Very busy... Which makes the day go faster.. Not once do you get bord.
Alot of responsibilty is given with very important reports.
Definitely skills for life. Time management will be tested and it will help with your degree studies in your final year.
The Company
Really nice modern offices. Its lovely envionment.
Very well set up. Everything is organised to the detail.
They have many courses in which you can attent regulary. Ranging from how to improve you imagination to Excel courses.
Company Parties/Events
Healthcare/Dental
Best to keep in contact with everybody you meet.
