Meet Beth: Our New Work Experience Placement Student
There’s a fresh face at The Warehouse, and we’re proper made up about it.
Beth is a Media and Communication student at Birmingham City University, and she’s joining the Eighty3 team for ten weeks as part of her work experience placement. She’ll be getting stuck in with our marketing team, picking up real-world skills across a range of live projects, and getting a feel for what agency life is actually like. Spoiler: it’s a lot more fun than assignment deadlines.
When we asked Beth what she was most looking forward to, she put it brilliantly: “I’m really looking forward to actually getting some work experience in a business environment and seeing what it’s like working on different projects as part of a team, rather than just working on assignments by myself.” We couldn’t have said it better ourselves. There’s a big difference between studying the theory and doing the thing for real, and this placement is exactly the kind of hands-on experience that makes a difference when you’re starting out.
At Eighty3, we’ve always believed in giving talented people the chance to learn and grow within a proper working environment. We know how valuable it is to get in amongst real briefs, real clients, and real deadlines early on. Beth brings fresh energy and a genuine enthusiasm that we think is going to be a brilliant addition to the team over the coming weeks.
So, Brierley Hill, say hello to Beth. We’re delighted to have her with us, and we can’t wait to see what she gets out of her time here. Watch this space.
