Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
5/5
Bid manager, working on contracts up to £5 million. On an average day I am building pricing models, gaining internal approvals, and working with clients to ensure smoother processes. Constant support is available.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
5/5
I have not worked at a company with such a strong and kind ethos before. I am yet to come across someone who is not willing to help where they can, and my voice is always heard and valued.

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
5/5
Yes. My confidence, time-keeping skills, communication skill, leadership skills, and teamwork skills have all vastly improved since the start of my apprenticeship.

How well organised/structured is your programme?
4/5
Less so a programme as much as being but into a vital job role with excellent support in place.

5/5
Excellent support, never had a question go unanswered.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?

Very independent

Not always relevant
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)

Endless! The sports and social club are always releasing new events for great prices
