Parts team leader Review

My role is as Parts team leader at motus commercials Halesowen. i am responsible for the day to day running of the parts department and am also in charge of 13 members of staff . it is my job to ensure all areas are running smoothly including the back counter (internal workshop) and front counter (external sales)

So far on this course i have learnt many new skills. the biggest gain so far in the first 3 months of this course have been towards my organisational skills. my role can be very busy and i can quickly become overcome with outstanding tasks. this course has helped me learn many techniques which have allowed me to stay in much better control of these tasks.

i enjoy this programme quite a lot. It is not only giving me a qualification which can help me achieve my goal of becoming a manager one day, but it is also giving me the tools and knowledge which help me become a better team leader in my current role.

i believe that the course i am on is very well structured. from the training sessions to the 1 to 1 mentoring sessions, it is organised so that we can fit everything in my working schedule so i can complete the course without having any impact on my day to day job role,

i receive quite a lot of support from my employer, more in particular my line manager. he has supported me before and during my apprenticeship. he allows me to have free time to complete any outstanding coursework, at the same time giving me valuable insights into managerial tasks and skills that i will need to have at my disposable to further my career.

I am very happy with the support that i receive from my training provider. [This section of the comment has been removed by a member of the RateMyApprenticeship Team because it did not meet our site terms and conditions] is always at hand to support and answer any questions that i have toward my apprenticeship . [This section of the comment has been removed by a member of the RateMyApprenticeship Team because it did not meet our site terms and conditions] also stays on the teams calls after any training session we have, so that if there is anything we wish to go through related to the learning material we have just learned, we can ask him immediately after the session has ended

i feel that the qualification course is helping me perform better at my role. whether its tools i can use to help my team directly or whether its tolls that help me personally, i feel within the first 3 to 4 months undergone on the course, i am already a better team leader than i was before.

there are a few company events which take place and each department occasionally hosts its own social events such as curry nights. we do alot of charity events, like challenege events such as chilli eating contests, bush tucker trials, and we have recently rolled out an end of month dress down day, which all of our depots nationally partake in, with a different charity to raise money for each month.

Yes

Motus commercial has a brilliant worth ethic and always looks after its employees. the opportunitys that the company offers within are like something i have never experienced before. internal promotion is prefered to hiring in external candidates. this has allowed me to progress from a van driver to my current role within a very short amount of time. Hard work is recognised.

always be honest, and stay down to earth. Showing your character is just as important as showcasing your skillset and previous experience. we all work as a team, so it is important that the company feels as though you will fit in with the team atmosphere.
