Phavour*, Hartlepool, UK – (July 2020 - Present)*
Joined the founding team at Phavour as an intern working on User Experience. This role allowed me to first develop my skills and design the entire customer support journey for the app. After this, the role turned into a full-time position, initially working on user experience and the product – working on the app itself during COVID. This role culminated in being placed in charge of Product/Research & Development, as the platform began its focus on the US market. Phavour is a platform to find one-off, freelance, and part-time work, mainly aimed at students. We also participated in B2B sales of our technology, in a "choose your own" fashion.
