- Supporting the preparation of client deliverables, presentations, trackers, and management reports
- Working effectively as a team member, sharing responsibility and providing support where required
- Regularly updating senior team members on your progress

- Understanding and maintaining client confidentiality and always ensuring their data security
- Contributing to people initiatives like training and buddying new team members
