Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
2/5
Opening closing the business, running shifts, cash handling, cellar management, rota management. Cross trained in the kitchen
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
4/5
It was interesting to learn so many different sections. There is a lot more to food and drink then I first thought.

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
3/5
I have learned to have more confidence in myself, only I can be the best I can be

Structure and Support

How well organised/structured is your programme?
1/5
It was good, but I really didn’t like the end point assessment. I felt that the questions were very long winded. I didn’t understand and what I had revised was nothing that she asked me.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
1/5
My employer didn’t give me much support at all. You are supposed to do this course during work tine. And I did not receive this. After working 50 hours a week I had to do this on my days off!
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
5/5
My trainer Victoria I couldn’t fault her at all! She was so friendly and very helpful. If I do any future courses I wish for her to be my trainer.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
3/5
I will find out when I go back to work. Been off for six months doesn’t really help. That was also why I found the discussion hard.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
1/5
No

Recommendations & Advice

Would you recommend Greene King to a friend?
No
Why?
Don’t get paid enough for what we do in our roles. Running a pub for 30p more an hour then a normal team member in the kitchen Isn’t good at all!
What tips or advice would you give to others applying to Greene King?
If you want anything in life example a promotion out yourself first. But don’t over work yourself too much. You need a work/social life balance.
