Marketing Officer Review

Daily tasks include managing social media, internal and external communications, marketing budgets and marketing activities, including; email marketing, search engine optimisation, social media marketing and website design and development. Liaising with employers and clients to maintain good relationships and provide support where possible to all apprentices and employers. Working as part of a team to ensure all marekting, sales and communication is effective.

The programme was very well organised and split into full-day online workshops once a month. The assignments were to be completed within that period. I sometimes felt that the assignments had a little too short of a deadline but they paid off with an early finish. They had an online platform to record all of our work which helped a lot too.

The support I receive from my employer is fantastic. They have really given me the exposure to learn every aspect of the KSBs within my standard, even making adaptations to their roles to help me with this. They give me the time and support to complete assignments and OTJ training and make sure i am directly implementing this back into my role.

The support i received from my training provider was good. It was well structured and i knew exactly who to go to depending on the issue at hand. They challenged me and expanded my knowledge where necessary to make sure i could achieve the best result possible for me, Having the support of the others on the cohort also helped and they also gave us the contact of those who had recently passed, i found this useful.

Because of my training, my role has completely adapted. From there being little to no marketing activity at all at my current employer to a structured way of working and consistent marketing materials being produced i can actively see the impact my learning has had on the organisation, I feel i can give good-quality responses to colleague questions and enquiries and feel confident in what i do/produce..
