Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:

4/5
It is well structured with clear deadlines.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
5/5
I receive lots of support not only from my employer but throughout the company. Everyone is approachable and more than willing to help others learn.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
3/5
I receive quite a bit of support from the training provider, we have monthly meetings which allow for them to go over any assignments that you have done and explain how these are helpful within the apprenticeship and job role.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
4/5
It helps me as it gives me a deeper understanding of pensions and the history behind them, this is helpful as it supports the work I do on a daily basis.
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
There are annual netball and football games. Each office will create a team and have a friendly competition with the other offices.
