Worked as a project engineer at Rolls Royce in a varied role, with lots of exposure to different responsibilities within the business. During my time at Rolls Royce I contributed to a single technology project focussed on lean emission technology. This industrial placement helped me to improve my:• Project management – One of my main roles was the organisation of testing and prioritisation of tasks, this led to managing the duties of colleagues in multiple departments and instructing them on where their priorities were for the project.• Interpersonal skills & communication – Due to my role within the company I had to communicate with various departments within the business along with internal clients. This involved giving detailed reports on my progress and also working alongside colleagues on the project. • Report Writing – My role had a large focus on writing reports on the findings of our tests. This helped me to develop my analytical assessment of results, my ability to draw conclusions from those results and has also greatly improved my proficiency in writing professional documents.• Problem solving – Due to the nature of the experimental work, our tests often produced unexpected results, meaning that quick thinking, both as an individual, and as part of a team, was necessary to reach an effective solution.
