  • 1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
  • My role now is a Branch manager this is due to the fact that I completed my Level 3 apprenticeship with Travis perkins. The training was simple and easy to follow and worth every hour of effort I put in. I recommend it to every person I work with and now have a team of 9 under me and have 2 of my team on the apprenticeships and will push others too after they have completed it.
