Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
4/5
M&E Services procurement, packagement management and construction management.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
4/5
I get to learn a new trade while earning at the same time and work in a really supportive and stable business.

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
4/5
I have learned an abundance of new skills and have also developed existing ones while working at Skanska.

Structure and Support

How well organised/structured is your programme?
4/5
Structure is good but there is an element of driving your own career so it is tailored to the individual which I feel is a good thing as everyone wants different things and learn differently. Skanska support everyone.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
4/5
I couldn't ask for more.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
4/5
I received enough support to know what i needed to do and then had to go away and push to the end goal.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
4/5
It provides structure and exposes you to aspects you wouldn't necessarily do if the training specification was not in place.
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
An abundance
