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

I am a data analyst and so clean and transform data to provide answers that people need. I also build dashboards and look after data collection methods (smartsheets) for various aspects of the company
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?

The work is very good but as an IT facing role there isn't much socialising in terms of other apprentices unless you really seek it out
Skills Development
Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
5/5
Lots. How to build dashboards and data manipulation, being in a work environment and communicating with stakeholders and other high level members of the business. How a business functions and the way to go about working on things in an agreeable manner
