  Savills

  • Research Analyst

    • Dec 2020 - Aug 2022

    I was employed by Savills to work as a Commercial Research Analyst, forming part of the UK's leading property research team. It was my responsibility to conduct in depth analysis on the West End office market. I produced bi-weekly reports and I also often presented to leading property experts on current trends which was challenging during such a period of market uncertainty. This taught me to hold confidence in my research and it allowed me to build upon my analytical skills. I also strongly enhanced my excel skills during this role as I analysed data and produced graphs, both of which would help me in the law profession as these tasks require a strong eye for detail. I also pioneered a large proportion of the research for ESG related data within the Central London office market which gave me the capabilities of conducting independent research for an exciting and new field.

  Marie Claire

  • Intern at Marie Claire

    • Oct 2020 - Dec 2020

    Undertook work experience at 'Marie Claire' magazine, working alongside the Editor in Chief and the rest of the features team. Throughout my time I liaised with publishers, agents and writers, maintained strict deadlines, and completed and edited over 25 articles. I also played a key role in helping organise their annual ‘Future Shaper’ awards, the magazines largest annual event. I interviewed, transcribed and organised a list of over 50 candidates. This three month internship strongly enhanced my writing skills, making me confident in writing succinctly and accurately. I also was given the responsibility of running a whole editorial feature on the homeless charity, ‘Centrepoint’, in which I was tasked with interviewing a number of people in care, and subsequently writing up a number of articles from the information. This required me to have great sensitivity when asking questions and was a great learning experience for improving my communication skills.

  Stepien Lake LLP

  • Work experience

    • Jun 2019 - Jun 2019

    Undertook a week’s work experience in this West End property law firm. Largely focused on land ownership within certain site plans, specifically mixed-use developments outside of London. I was also tasked with frequently analysing, documenting, and filing lease and ownership documents. This provided me with a great opportunity of what it is like to work as part of a law firm, particularly one with such specialised interests. I thoroughly enjoyed the week and being given my own responsibilities, however it showed me that perhaps I would like the opportunity to see what it would be like to work as part of a larger firm with greater number of expertise across wider variety of departments. Notwithstanding this, I really valued the week I worked there for.
