Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:

Assisting a relationship manager in day to day queries and issues, speaking to customers, creating briefs for meetings, creating presentations, helping with customer due diligence.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
4/5
The specific course for my apprenticeship is really interesting - I've learnt so much by doing the webinars which is really helping me understand more of the banking world as when you come into a banking role people assume you know all about banking which I didn't.
Skills Development
Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?

Yes, definitely speaking to customers, organisation skills have massively improved, customer service and ethical needs based selling.

Very organized and well structure. easy to understand

I wouldn't say I can comment on this as of yet as the apprenticeship has just started this last month. I think after a few more sessions and meetings with my coach i may feel like i can perform better in my role.

Yes there are lots of volunteering opportunities and networking events to get involved in.
