Reporting, billing, initiative work, month end tasks. Communicating with internal and external customers and colleagues. Responsible for meeting month end deadlines and initiative milestones. Mentoring and handover to the new apprentice.
Tapestry and journals - massive new role and constantly learning new skills within this. Clyde month end - similar but also different to Devonport month end so involves me learning different and new skills within Clyde. Managerial skills when helping mentor the new apprentice.
Very much, learning new skills, developing new relationships and slowly growing into a role that suits me best. However I do find sometimes the work/in-depth explanation can be a little overwhelming at times.
Very well, was given a checklist with guided hours per week in which i should be focusing on and committing to. With hours given aside for college work which is essential.
Couldn't say enough about how much support i receive, whether its from my team, manager, mentor or just colleagues within Babcock. There is never a time i feel i cant contact someone for support or guidance.
Plenty of support, weekly drop ins and help if needed.
It does in terms of dealing with bookkeeping and ensuring i maintain the level of ethical standards, however a lot of my stuyding doesnt directly relate to the tasks and roles i do as an apprentice.
No, of course i work from home remotely, but i would be much more inclined if there was a social side to my apprenticeship, i only really know two other apprentice whos my mentor and who i am mentoring, as well as having no awareness of activities or sport.
Yes
Brilliant opportunities, support, guidance and progression. Alongside the great progressive salary and debt free academic achievements.
There is no silly question, don't be afraid to put yourself forward for something outside your comfort zone as this is an amazing opportunity and finally enjoy yourself.
