Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
5/5
Deductions and price claims. I review invoices sent by customers on promotions and investigate whether they are valid or not. I also review a spend file to help support the sales team and check if they're over or under budget for the month.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
5/5
I really enjoy my program as I've had a chance to work in the operations decision support team which is very technical and I'm now working in sales finance which has given me a broad understanding of finance within a company.
Skills Development
Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
5/5
I've developed my confidence massively in this role and have learnt new excel skills, and how to use different transactions on SAP.
Structure and Support
How well organised/structured is your programme?
5/5
Very well structured - Nestle support your goals so I made the choice to stay in my previous role for a longer period of time to develop more understanding. Due to Covid - they also extended my time to complete my exams for my apprenticeship.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
5/5
Very supportive - nestle allow you to decide what area of the business suits you best and offer lots of different opportunities.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
4/5
Due to covid - the majority of my training has been online but i have had a good experience as my talent coach is very supportive and there are a lot of online resources and hard copies of the materials get sent out.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
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
I've been involved with a lot of networking and social events, mental health first aid and the eradication racism network.
