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

    • My role is to support a team of Relationship Managers in delivering income to our organisation by building strong relationships with clients and providing funding. It also involves interacting with clients directly to help with their queries.

  • 4. How well organised/structured is your programme?

    • It was fairly well orgnised until Covid 19 started. After that the communication wasn't always clear between my organisation and the training provider. I also felt the programme could have started sooner as it only started 3 months after I was hired

  • 5. How much support do you receive from your employer?

    • I get a lot of support from my team and the wider bank as well as from our apprentices team. The only disappointing thing is the tutor from the bank I was allocated to help completely disappear since the covid 19 crisis
