Team leader Review

Opening an closing the store, running the shift, cash procedures. Managing the team. Taking delivery’s, customer service, being involved in the community. Inspiring others. Listening to staff issues. Doing the rota. Office responsibilities including delivery notes. Temperature checks, stock rotation and date checking, opening store checks, store walk check

Good listening skills, and body language, have improved on those with the help of the apprenticeship conferences. Dealing with difficult situations developed on those again with the help of the apprenticeship program. Learnt a new skill of coaching which I have used in my day to day job roll, helping the team

I enjoy the programme work, as in the actual course work material. However I do have a long way to travel for the actual conference days which is a pain, I travel 3 and a half hours door to door. There and then back. Some days I spend more time travelling than in the actual conference

It seems like it is some what structured however there has been conferences I have been to where the content doesn’t match the work book also the conference days are not in preset of the work that you need to do on one file so this can be quite confusing

I receive so much support from my line manager, however that is where it stops, no one else from the company has been helpful at all which is quite a shame as it would be appreciated. When there is a problem there is a promise of a call back which never comes

Almost none to be honest apart from our original tutor everyone else has been quite useless, it’s such a shame really as i am interested in the course and the content it’s just a shame how it’s being delivered, could be such a great thing but it’s not

I have learnt much that has helped me with in my role too much to write down here, everything from body language to coaching it is a great course it’s just a shame the company that is used is so poor as I’m sure I could learn so much more

Not as far as I’m aware of, that’s not to say that there isn’t just I’m not aware of that there is, would be great if there is, I would definitely attend, especially if they were football related or something good like that nothing boring please

Yes

Co op is a great company to work for, i have really enjoyed my time here, good pay, good friends what more could you ask for. Joining the apprenticeship was the cherry on the cake, learn some more skills whilst I work what a bonus making work, work for me

Go for it, it would be the best decision you could make, pay is good make good friends, can do things like the apprenticeship, just be yourself and be kind to others were a great community company fair trade who wouldn’t want to work for the co op. Boom
