Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
3/5
I complete amendments (usually cost and ladder plan amendments) and generally help buyer admins. Internally, I greet my grandmaster and other apprentices on Teams, ask my grandmaster if they need help and ask them questions on the buyer admin role to learn more about the role. Externally, I study at the Fashion Retail Academy. My responsibilities are to learn about the buyer admin role, get a buyer and complete my project from the Fashion Retail Academy.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
5/5
I really did enjoy the rotation, where I learnt more about the business.

Very flexible.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
2/5
We received a lot of support from our Buying Administrator Support Supervisor, but she went on a sick leave and now we have our Buying Operations Manager-In-Training and we recieve less support.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
2/5
We only receive feedback and told our next steps.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
5/5
We essentially learn business studies, so it gives us more insight about the company.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
5/5
We do occasionally have events.
