Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
5/5
Managing the accounts of a portfolio of contracts. Measuring performance and relaying results to senior management team. More recently looking after a team of management accountants.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?

Many accountancy skills learnt
Structure and Support
How well organised/structured is your programme?
4/5
Still a fairly new programme and has been impacted by Covid but overall, a really well organised process
How much support do you receive from your employer?
5/5
I have a manager that looks after me, a apprenticeship lead and a mentor, all of which are interested in my progress
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
4/5
I enjoy taking on the educational side of the programme by myself but the college are there if I need them
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
2/5
I believe I have learnt more through the work I have carried out through my company (CEVA) than I have through my training provider. And my progress through the ranks has outpaced the training I have have been doing
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
4/5
Largely hit by Covid but we have many events that go through the year. Play football in the summer, social activities etc. CEVA understands the importance of making the office an enjoyable place of work
Recommendations & Advice
Would you recommend CEVA Logistics to a friend?
Yes
Why?
They have looked after me really well. I joined shortly after completing university and finding myself as a waiter in a restaurant. I was taken on with no experience of working in an office, started as an administrator and now find myself as a member of the management team in a short space of time.
What tips or advice would you give to others applying to CEVA Logistics?
Dont be intimidated with it. Its a logistics company so a steep learning curve. But some of the most simple advice is often the most effective change
