1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:

I am involved with Technology Support/data Analysis. This has me working with multiple teams within the company to ensure that various sources of data are maintained appropriately, an example of this could be looking over a report used within Power BI to check it operates as expected or is updated in time for upcoming meetings.
