Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
4/5
Day to day I assist as a project manager on my project. Daily I communicate with all stakeholders, from clients and cost consultants to contractors and I make sure all needs are met and the project can be completed on time. I also do a lot of contract management, I track the use of EWNs and GCs to ensure they are resolved, I draft CRFs, check and approve CEs etc.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
4/5
I have met some great people on my programme, both apprentices and experienced team members. The programme pushes you to network and meet new people. I have attended various workshops as part of the apprenticeship and gained a lot of knowledge. The scheme ensures you set goals and meet them effectively.
Skills Development
Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
5/5
Coming straight from my A Levels into the corporate environment threw me in the deep end but was the best decision for me. I have grown into a confident individual who can communicate with ease and isn't threatened by a challenge. On the job I have learnt a vast amount of new skills from leadership and organisation to more technical skills.

I am only 6 months into my degree and personally have not found the modules very applicable to my role yet
