  • 1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
  • I work in a project management team in a shared service working for multiple clients. My role consists on managing the financials for the clients reviewing time and expenses before proceeding to invoice. I also manage the status of new pieces of work we have secured with the client making sure they are progressed through the correct stages before they get singed.
