We sat down with Mehek Khanna from Pearson Ham Group who walks us through a typical day as a Senior Consultant.\u00a0<\/p>\n

How do you start your typical workday? <\/strong><\/h5>\n

Before work commences, I like to start my day by going for a run or to the gym. Starting my mornings like this helps me clear my mind and boost my dopamine levels.\u00a0<\/p>\n

I travel into the office 2\/3 days a week. Luckily, I live very close to the office so my journey on the tube takes less than 30 minutes.\u00a0<\/p>\n

I like to start my mornings early and aim to get into the office around 8\/8:30AM. I tend to grab my breakfast on the way in. Recently, been enjoying a caf\u00e9 called Blank Street that has just opened and I would highly recommend their Flat White to anyone who hasn’t tried it before!\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

What does a morning as a Senior Consultant look like for you? <\/strong><\/h5>\n

I like to start my mornings by catching up on e-mails and planning key activities for the rest of the day. This helps me prioritise certain actions and discuss them with the team during our morning check-in (usually at 9\/9.30 AM).<\/p>\n

I also try to carve out some time in the mornings to either create (e.g., storylines for key deliverables) or review content created by team members.<\/p>\n

In addition to our daily catch-ups, we also have specific problem-solving sessions with the entire project team in the mornings (twice a week) to help identify and address any challenges we are facing on the project.<\/p>\n

All in all, my mornings are blocked with focus time and meetings to get things done.<\/p>\n

How do you\u00a0 spend your lunchtimes when you go into the office? <\/strong><\/h5>\n

I am not very adventurous when it comes to lunch, so I usually end up getting the same thing to eat on most day.\u00a0<\/p>\n

My usual lunch spots are either M&S or to the Berwick Street food market for a quick bite.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Every Thursday I end up eating the Halloumi wrap from EatActiv (thanks to the L&D team who organises the Lunch and Learn sessions!).<\/p>\n

And how does your afternoon look, as a Senior Consultant? <\/strong><\/h5>\n

In the afternoons, I have a short\/ad-hoc check-in with my team members to discuss any updates, solve any outstanding issues, and review content.<\/p>\n

A lot of my time is also spent on prepping for and attending client calls that typically happen later in the day as I am currently working for a US-based client.<\/p>\n

In addition to project related work, I am also involved in a few internal initiatives (e.g., recruitment) which take up some of my time in the afternoons.<\/p>\n

After your workday ends, how do you spend your evenings? <\/strong><\/h5>\n

I like to wrap up my day by 7 PM, eat dinner and watch something on TV (currently following Roland Garros) before I go to sleep.<\/p>\n

Is there anything else you would like to add about working at Pearson Ham Group?<\/strong><\/h5>\n
