Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
4/5
I help out with all aspects of the finance team, AP, AR, treasury and then at month end look after two entities managing the balance sheet and P/L statement.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
3/5
It has been pretty good apart from the delays in the service provided by the training provider but I enjoy my job.

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
3/5
I have learnt how to value companies and also how to analyse data more efficiently as well as how things such as budgets and forecasts work in more detail.

Structure and Support

How well organised/structured is your programme?
2/5
Not too well really, on paper it was good but just a lack of staff and the communication left me waiting for longer than I needed to to sit exams.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
4/5
I receive great support from my employer allowing me to sit with different people around the business to help with my experience to support my learning.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
3/5
The support was good from my tutor and teachers just a little bit of a delay but didn't cause too many issues.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
4/5
It has complimented my job role perfectly as I have been learning about things I either do now or I would want to do in the future.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
3/5
Yes there are quite a few things to get involved in socially like parties and meals, not so much on the side of sports.

Recommendations & Advice

Yes
Why?
Because they want to help you succeed and it is a very friendly environment to learn and develop in.
What tips or advice would you give to others applying to Klipboard?
I would say don't be afraid to ask lots of questions and use the experience around you as everyone has their own way of doing things so you can learn off of everyone.
