My favourite thing about the Business Management Internship at Centrica was the broadness of opportunities. In only 9 weeks I was able to undertake a variety of focused projects which deepened my understanding of business processes and helped me figure out what career path I want to follow. This, along with the high-level responsibility given from day one, made the summer placement truly enriching."

The summer internship was undeniably important for my own professional development, as well as being very enjoyable! I found myself contributing in meetings with Amazon and Santander, giving presentations to commercial management teams, calling competitors for pricing research, among many other tasks. The confidence I gained from this was great."
