Whilst completing my MSc dissertation, I worked in a number of roles at Syngenta. These ranged from technical roles developing websites and databases through to Service Delivery Management and Incident and Problem Management.

After three years I was working as a Junior Business Partner, acting as a liaison between business focussed departments and Information Services. This enabled Syngenta to standardise IT systems internationally, take advantage of local innovations by scaling them up and ensuring any innovations fit within the company’s Enterprise Architecture and IT strategy. In this role I was also an interface between the business and technical teams, making technical concepts understandable for business colleagues and translating business requirements into technical requirements for IT colleagues.
