Business Administrator Review

I am responsible for the administration and coordination of the company vehicle fleet and a range of operational support tasks. This includes managing vehicle onboarding and off-boarding, maintaining hub vehicle records such as condition and mileage, and overseeing weekly checks for insurance and breakdown cover. I also arrange vehicle services, MOTs, repairs, hire vehicles, trackers, fuel cards, and conduct monthly driving licence checks.
Alongside fleet management, I support business operations by organising client events, inviting clients and distributing tickets. My role also involves completing company accreditations and PQQ's to ensure ongoing compliance.

My programme is well organised and structured. Previously, I had weekly review meetings, which have now moved to twice a month to review progress and priorities. During these meetings, my progress with my apprenticeship is also discussed to ensure I am staying up to date with my work and requirements. I have always been supported with dedicated time during working hours to complete my apprenticeship tasks, which has helped me keep on track and balance this alongside my day-to-day responsibilities.

I receive a lot of support from my employer. They regularly check in on my progress and make sure I am keeping up to date with my apprenticeship. I am given time during working hours to complete my apprenticeship work, which helps me balance it with my day-to-day responsibilities. I also feel supported in my role as I am able to ask questions, take on new tasks, and develop my skills across different areas of the business.

I receive good support from my college training provider. We have formal reviews every 12 weeks to discuss my progress and ensure I am on track with my qualification. When I first started the apprenticeship, my tutor visited every four weeks to provide additional support and guidance until we both felt I was confident enough to manage the work more independently. This support has helped me understand the requirements of the course and stay on track with my learning.

I feel that my qualification helps me perform better in my role by improving my understanding of business operations and the tasks I complete on a daily basis. It has helped me develop skills in organisation, communication, and managing different responsibilities. The knowledge I gain through my training provider also supports the work I do within the business, particularly when completing operational tasks and understanding processes such as compliance and accreditations.

I would recommend G&H Building Services to a friend because it is a supportive and engaging workplace. The company encourages learning and development, providing time and guidance to complete apprenticeships and other training. There is a friendly and approachable team, a wide variety of responsibilities that make the work interesting, and extra-curricular activities like gym sessions, personal training, and yoga to promote wellbeing. Overall, it is a positive environment where you can develop your skills, take on new challenges, and feel valued as part of the team.
