      Project Manager

      During my second year at university I completed a module in project management. The main aim of this was to complete a project for a local business. Our project for Clever Student Lets involved completing market research to help the client understand their customers' wants and need in more detail. The deliverables for this project included a report of our findings, a student charter based around what Clever Student Lets strive to achieve and a shared house behavioural agreement all drawing upon the information we gathered during our research. As project manager for a team of 4, my role required me to be decisive in all areas of the project including team, risk and stakeholder management as well as making project decisions. We received very good feedback from the client about what we had produced. They are now using the documents in their everyday activities. Show less
