Overview of Role

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

5/5
Came from Deloitte to complete my professional tax exams (ATT) and got a wide range of diverse opportunities in tax around all different areas which is an extremely unique opportunity in the tax industry.

To what extent do you enjoy your programme?

5/5
The BBC is a great place to work and very accommodating and supporting. Work and non-work related I felt supported through my apprenticeship.

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?

5/5
I've had the opportunity to get involved in nearly every area of tax from BEPS & CbCR for corporate tax to employment status and PSA in employment.

Structure and Support

How well organised/structured is your programme?

5/5
The BBC were great in supporting me. Any issues I had came from the professional bodies and the BBC had my corner throughout.

How much support do you receive from your employer?

5/5
From tax team members to specific academy support couldn't have asked for more.

How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?

2/5
Kaplan were very poor at times but by the end I had a good learning coach after going through 3 separate coaches before hand.

How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?

5/5
Has given me confidence to complete my day to day role.

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
Personally didn't join in any but there's a wide range of clubs and societies
