3. To what extent do you enjoy your programme?

I enjoyed it very much. I have gained knowledge as to how a large company works and how all the roles fit together as a team.

8/10

4. How well organised/structured is your programme?

Very well. We often have days where we have to attend extra training or awareness where we are able to meet people from all over the business. This has helped me understand my role better and what I am able to work towards, as well as making me feel more involved in the Mace team.

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

A good amount. The main support has come from my line manger rather than the company as a whole. Within the whole company, I am aware I am just one of many employees.

Not much more than was required of them.

Frequent networking with people on and off my project.
