The Role
It was very enjoyable, but varied as you receive such a broad range of roles. Some will be tough than others and some much more interesting than others.
This varied throughout the year depending on who I was working for.
This also varied as in some projects I was provided with constant support and in others there was very little. However if I ever needed to speak to anyone, there were plenty of people a phone call away.
Normally very busy and working quite long hours. Shift patterns and hours will vary throughout the year.
The Company
Lots of training in a variety of roles.
