Dont be afraid to ask questions, its such a big (but exciting) move when looking to join a new company. We all use different terminology, and interpretations. Take the opportunity to ask as many questions to clarify your understanding of the role, what you need to deliver, but what will it also deliver for you! An employee that enjoys and feels satisfied that they are growing in the role, will be a happily and more productive individual. There is always someone available to answer questions, don't be afraid to ask!

Its important to have a career plan, break it down into chunks e.g. next 12 months, 2-5 years then 5 years plus. Make the right people aware of this plan. After all how can the leadership team support you if they dont know your aspirations? Then its important to understand what skills are needed to make the next move. Breadth moves are very usefully as it expands your overall knowledge which ultimately helps with career development. With all this in mind its also important to be flexible and adaptable. Seek out advice from senior peers who would have probably been in a similar situation in the past.

Lots of opportunities will present to work with different people or to volunteer to get involved in different areas of the business. Always volunteer to do something new - it’s great to have variety but it also gives great insight into how you could do your own job even better.
