      I was delegated the responsibility of inviting policy renewals, and then following up these invitations with direct involvement to the companies clients. The experience of speaking to the companies clients over the phone, both dealing with renewals, and any problems they may have strengthened my communication skills greatly.

      My main role of researching the Chinese sporting markets strengthened my knowledge of China, and indicated my ability to identify developing areas of industry. Most of my time at the company was spent working with their main client, Jaguar Land Rover. Their desire to expand in the Asian market was the cause for my research, and my work was valued for its comprehensive nature. The importance of this research into the Chinese market was that I increasingly understood its growing significance.

      By being delegated the considerable responsibility of the acquisition of fourteen properties, I not only outlined my capacity to work under pressure, but also to succeed when working to a deadline. I had to ensure the acquisitions were carried out properly from start to finish. This involved speaking directly to law firm’s client, the Land Registry and the seller of the properties. By overseeing the complete process I showed my capability when speaking to many different clients within the process. The negotiation process with the Land Registry was crucial to my role, and a component that I not only enjoyed but also excelled in. Similarly the contractual process of the purchasing of the properties was particularly rewarding. From this the appeal of ship broking was clear, with the selling or chartering of ship being a role in which my skills are directly applicable. Show less
