      Definitely deciding what biscuits to have with my cup of tea.

      That and managing peoples expectations.

      The hardest part of my job is trying to explain something which is very technical and for which I have a lot of knowledge about to someone who doesn’t, in a way in which they understand it so they know why it is important.

      This means you really have to think hard about the way in which you explain something and the language you use and can be frustrating when someone doesn’t get it!

      The hardest part of my job is managing my time wisely. There are so many things to do, it’s very much possible that trying to do them all at the same time would mean running around like a headless chicken!
      I need to focus on one thing at a time to get it done and move on to the next.

      The hardest part about my job is juggling the priorities of different issues. Making sure that the most important ones are looked at and managing the team towards a resolution.

      It can also be one of the most rewarding too!
