Charli Brewerton - working in international finance
Charli graduated in BA Modern Languages (French and German - beginners’ German pathway):
I was lucky enough to go to Austria, France and Germany. I spent six amazing weeks in Innsbruck tutoring adults in English. I was then a language assistant in two primary schools in Bordeaux. I finished in Berlin as an Assistant Translator and Project Manager. Without this, I would not have landed my graduate job!
