Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
4/5
My role includes being a consultant as part of a team in public sector risk and compliance where I work with clients such as the NHS. My day-to-day includes Data Testing, Report Writing and general admin tasks
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
3/5
I really do enjoy the programme I am currently on due to the amount of apprentices I have in the same cohort as well as the support we are given from various groups in the community

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
4/5
I have developed on a range of soft skills in this role and have also learnt technical skills surrounding excel and powerpoint in particular

Structure and Support

How well organised/structured is your programme?
4/5
Personally, I would say that the structure is not clearly defined on a week-to-week basis due to the nature of the industry and how each project you are involved in can be different. On a year-to-year scale though, there is a clear goal and aim for apprentices for each year they are in the firm
How much support do you receive from your employer?
3/5
I recieve alot of support both externally and internally within the community
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
2/5
We do recieve monthly calls monthly from a coach who is associated with the training provider that we use. This is helpful when coming across assignments and work.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
4/5
I believe the qualification will help me perform better with the soft skills required in my role
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
Yes, we have alot of access to internal/external networking events as well as societies within the community - this ranges from sports, arts as well as other hobbies too. As a community, I believe that KPMG is a great place to work.
