As part of the post-COVID scale up of BA's flying schedule, myself and other graduate colleagues were trained as cabin crew for the summer season to help support the operation. This opportunity provided an excellent insight into BA's end-to-end customer journey as well as the operational, safety and people management challenges that come with the role.

My role focused on organising past proposals into a categorised proposals library. This was to ensure a high level of consistency across similar types of proposals and reduce employee workload. As a secondary output this also freed up managerial input in terms of having to think back to proposals that fit similar categories. My other tasks included drafting NDA's, applying for Business Awards and attending the "Topsides 2019" Oil and Gas conference.
