A day with ISE could start by working on planning a vacation programme for international students, then supporting or leading the delivery of an event, and ending the day responding to student queries. A day with GET could start by attending a Teams meeting, then planning for an upcoming trip\/conference, before welcoming visitors or prospective students for a campus tour. However, as a Graduate Management Trainee (GMT), there will also be days where I will be involved in extra-curriculars such as working on a sustainability project, attending a developmental training session or shadowing a senior committee meeting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What\u2019s your favourite project you\u2019ve worked on?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There have been many projects that I have enjoyed working on during my time in Loughborough Sport, the Strategic Planning Team, the International Student Experience Team and Global Engagement. It&#8217;s hard to choose one but I would say there were two projects that I enjoyed the most. The first one was being involved in the planning and delivery of the University Leadership Group away day. This experience taught me a lot about the high scale level and details needed to run a successful away day.  The second project, a recent one, was to project manage the Loughborough Festivities Programme for International students (and home students) who were staying in Loughborough throughout the Christmas vacation period. I really cherished the opportunity to have an impact on bettering the experience of international students who couldn&#8217;t travel back home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What is your proudest moment at Loughborough?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There have been many great highlights in my time at Loughborough so far, but my proudest moment would have to be when my fellow colleagues and I established and launched the Early Careers Staff Network, which aims at supporting staff new to their career in Higher Education.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Tell us something you do outside of work that we might not know about?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Outside of work, my main hobby is Salsa and Latin dancing- especially when it&#8217;s in the Blackpool Tower Ballroom!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What is your favourite quote?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;In a world where you can be anything, choose to be kind&#8221; by Jennifer Dukes Lee<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>If you would like to feature in \u20185 Minutes With\u2019, or you work with someone who you think would be great to include, please email Lilia Boukikova at L.Boukikova@lboro.ac.uk<\/strong><\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What\u2019s your job title and how long have you been at Loughborough?
