I am one of the customer development graduates, currently in my customer strategy planning (category) rotation. My day-to-day responsibilities differ based on customer needs, however I often help out with range reviews and strategy planning sessions. I also run monthly meetings for the team to update them on performance in the latest 4 weeks. I also help with any ad-hoc tasks that come up.
