  • 1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
  • I have now completed my apprenticeship in the Business and Administration Sector. I have now been kept on as a full time permanent employee. My main duties were to book all travel and hotel reservations, long term car hires, deal with suspense/leave requests and booking meetings. I really enjoyed this side of my work as it meant I could be on the front of house and more client focused. I have now moved into a more accounts based role, where I deal with purchase ledger, raising invoices, journals, maintaining the asset register, petty cash claims, banking and company expenses.
