I help the day to day management of commercial properties.

I am developing my understanding of the real estate sector and improving my core numeracy and literacy skills along the way.

How well organised/structured is your programme?
4/5
My programme is extremely well organised. I have regular meetings with my supervisor to ensure I am still on track.

I receive a good amount of support from UCEM but not as much as my employer. I think they could be more sympathetic when it comes to assignments as juggling studying and working is not always the easiest.

My qualification is helping me greater understand the real estate industry and will enable me to become chartered in the future.

All of above are provided at Savills on a regular basis.
