Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
5/5
I look after the employee at first direct who are within the HSBC group. I design the strategy we want to have for our employees for first direct to be an employer of choice for the UK. I lead a team of 7 FTE and provide them with coaching on a daily basis.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
4/5
I enjoy meeting with other people on the cohorts, and the e-learning. There is a lot to do whilst managing own workload. The virtual classrooms are also really good. We did previously have someone who read from the slides and didn't feel like a good way to spend time, but this was changed following feedback and these are really good and benefical now. As there has been a change I have rated a 9.

Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
4/5
Yes - I have developed existing skills on coaching and learnt some new tools and models to support

How much support do you receive from your employer?
5/5

Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
5/5
Yes - there is a gym on site, and we have a sports and social club which is currently going through redesign but pre-pandemic had social events, outings etc. HSBC has many professional networking events in person and virtually

Why?
Great people, very supportive culture
What tips or advice would you give to others applying to HSBC?
Don;t think you have to be a pro at Maths to work for HSBC or another bank. There are so many opportunities in the bank and the group.
