Account Manager Review

Account Management - financials, forecasting, contracts/commercials, resourcing, internal governance/approvals, stakeholder management, external governance/approvals, RFP/RFI bid tenders, client presentations. Responsible for a client specifically, or could be a selection of clients from the same Market Unit (e.g. Public Sector, Consumer Products, Retail, Energy etc).

Newer to the programme, we are currently in the first module. I have learnt many new theories/models/frameworks, all of which are incredibly interesting and easily applied to my industry. It is also very interesting applying these to my organisation. Helping to develop new strategic initiatives and ways of viewing the organisations strategy and how they have landed on it.

So far, thoroughly enjoying it. Really enjoying the in person sessions, lecturers so far have been incredibly engaging. The 'on the job' support is also really good, Henley and the Capgemini Apprenticeship coordinators have been fantastic at ensuring we have enough support around the clock. Also enjoying the sessions that are lead by a senior employee of my organisation but delivering on the module content, or putting the module content into the perspective of our organisation - great networking opportunity as well.

Incredibly well organised/structured. From both Henley Business Schools perspective and internally by Capgemini.

A lot. Frequent check ins with the whole co-hort and our specific learning groups. Dedicated mentors and support from our people managers. Lots of supporting materials. General welfare check-ins which have been well received outside of just checking in on the programme content and outputs.

Lots of support. Henley have lots of supporting content to help guide our learning and ensuring we are making progress against SMART goals.

Given the apprenticeship is in Senior Leadership/Management and my role is Account Management, this qualification will hugely boost my role performance. Through understanding strategy and how to create/guide strategy, commercial/financials, understanding my own leadership DNA and becoming the best version of a manager, knowing how to support clients and stakeholders internally/externally etc

Yes! Lots of social activities and professional networking events within our own industries, teams, departmental focus etc. Events to really call out and those that are truly championed within Capgemini, are those that are dedicate for Early and Emerging Talent in our early years as we just join the corporate world and as a young female in stem, Women In Tech events. We also have lots of sports teams, multiple netball teams for many different departments all over the country. I also know there are lots of golf, rugby and football teams. We also have the annual France (HQ) vs England Rugby game which is a lot of fun!

Yes

An incredibly inclusive company. Championing everyone for their own USPs. Colleagues actually become friends. They support progression through the grades. Support you if you want to try another role in the company, offering secondments and supporting you in your growth and finding where you flourish.

no question is a silly question, Cap is such an inclusive company, offering so many opportunities and really want to champion you. And to quote our values, working here is 'FUN'.
