What does day-to-day life in your role look like?

There truly isn’t a typical day; every day delivers a fresh perspective or a fresh obstacle. Generally there are always small projects to complete which are repeated tasks which I look at daily or every other day. Typically, I’ll start the day with a drink while checking Slack, my check lists from the day prior and my ongoing tasks. After that, I’ll jot down my priorities for the day, which can vary.

What would you say is the most interesting aspect of your role?

Having the view of physical shipping movement around the world – eyes in the sky on my screen.
