Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
4/5
I am a Trade supervisor, I look after my Tradesmen. I deal with Account reviews, Upgrades, Quote work, Front of House Merchandising, Money Handling and Finance. I work with Top Spending customers making sure that I can give them the best deals to keep their trust. Building trust with other customers also.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
4/5
My programme is very interesting so far and I feel challenged enough that I can continue to to do my day job without my apprenticeship being an interuption.
Skills Development
Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
4/5
I have been learning many more skills since being promoted in December. This is a very challenging job and you need a lot of patience but I thoroughly enjoy my role.
Structure and Support
How well organised/structured is your programme?
4/5
Very well, the schedule was set from the get go, which meant I could get all my training booked in. This has been very useful for rotas and holidays.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
3/5
A lot of support but I feel it could be a little bit more supported or remembered. I feel I need to book in my apprenticeship time a bit better.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
5/5
Whenever I have a question, I also message Felicity and she always helps me almost instantly. She lets me know thoroughly what I need to do so I am very grateful.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
5/5
It helps me a little so far. Most things I have learnt so far are already things I know how to do or have been doing in my role as Trade Supervisor. It has been giving me pointers so far so I do still appreciate it.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
4/5
We book in a night out every quarter for our team to enjoy to team building outside or work. This can include playing sports and having a picnic or having dinner and going for drinks. We are a great team.
