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

I assist the energy team at Savills primarily with finding sites for renewable energy projects. I have also began to help with option & Lease work between landowners and developers. Also, I work on admin tasks.

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

Yes, before I started I had very little knowledge of renewables or general surveying knowledge. Through work and my degree I am learning a lot on both of these and have a far greater knowledge.

I enjoy the majority of my work and find it pretty interesting. It rarely gets boring and I'm getting newer and different tasks to complete. My uni course is also good.
