Business Administration Review

It is impossible to say what I do day to day as within Babcock we go through multiple placements. In my current placement I am doing technical administration for a nuclear side of the business and hence cant disclose everything I do. Mainly document control and standard admin such as stationary ordering and filing.

The programme is very organised even though COVID has struck us messing multiple norms up. they have still managed to come through and give a strict and forward schedule to things. They are always adding new additions and ideas to it too that they think can help us and even help knewer intakes.

We receive mega amounts of support from the employer. Our manager is always there to help and improve us. The HR team you dont really here from unless yourself has a problem. Our mentors give us monthly 1-1s. There is support surrounding everyone. Multiple networks to get involved in around the site.

You receive constant support from your placement manager throughout your time as an apprentice. You also have a college representative that you can contact if you struggle with any part of the NVQ. This is also something you can bring up in your 1-1s with your mentor every month. Your team will also willingly support you.

I believe the qualification has some assistance to learning what you do in your role. However for the most part admin is so wide and uncontrolled that there is no way it covers it all. I also found I learnt 90% of my job through actually doing it in my team.

Yes

I would recommend babcock to a friend because when you are in there you can see the vast amount of options you have to build a successful and good career. They have so many different versions of each job role and multiple business units you can join. There is also tonnes of benefits of being an employee.
