Brand & Attraction Manager Review

My daily role is the project manage key campaigns and projects for the whole group, and as a result required to provide data and report on the return on our investments, campaign outcomes and key metrics on our channels.

I have learnt how to better use Excel, with far more tools that I previously knew. I also have gained exposure to PowerBI which was completely new to me, and a huge benefit to my professional experience.

I really enjoy my programme and the programme learning. It is a good mix of self and directed learning

It is well structured and organised

We are supported but there is a lot of personal ownership to take the 8 hours a week learning time, so you have to be clear to take the time. Overall I think the business see the value in my apprenticeship.

I receive a lot of support from my tutor, but I think we would benefit if he has fewer students and a bit more time to give each student.

I feel it helps me perform well in my role. I feel more confident in reading data and telling a story about the data, and using new tools to understand and visualise the data.

No but I know there are options

Yes

It's a supportive organisation that empowers it's colleagues to invest in their personal development and there's plenty of options for learning, progression and new challenges.

Be yourself, research the company and ensure you are aware of the transformational plans of M&S. Be prepared with on the job examples to share.
