Digital Marketing Assistant Review

My role consists mainly of, social media management, SEO, copywriting, email marketing. My day-to-day basis usually includes 1-2 hours of managing the company LinkedIn/Instagram as well as scheduling content. I also run end of month reports at the end of each calendar month as well as the annual quarters.

I have learnt plenty of new skills in my job, including time management, content creation, photoshop, email marketing design, tools such as Magento, Mailchimp, DotDigital, SEMrush, Google analytics, excel, word, powerpoint. I have also developed my writing skills considerably since starting my apprenticeship back in 2021. I have managed to develop my writing style as well as skill.

I really enjoy my programme- it offers me something different with every assignment and I do enjoy some of the assignments I'm asked to complete. I enjoy the course as it's super relevant to my job role, and all the skills i learn I can directly apply to my job role with my job role being so mixed, we've touched base on pretty much everything I do day-to-day.

I feel as thought the programme is well structured- however I do think some areas could be better suited to those with different learning styles. For example the 'writing retreat' we have on day 2 of our classroom days I find to be really useless, it doesn't help me get work done I just find myself super distracted.

I receive a lot of support from my employer. My boss has always been very supportive of my Uni and Uni work, I'm always helped in work and they give me plenty of time to complete my assignments in my work time to avoid me being stressed at home.

The training providers have given a good amount of support. I don't accept as much support as I maybe should as I always try to figure things out on my own, but I am aware there is alot of support available and I am consistently offered it when I express I'm struggling.

I do feel as thought my performance has improved massively. I think the qualification has given me more confidence in work as I know I'm being trained to degree level so almost have more confidence in the decisions and suggestions and use this to create work I'm confident to present.

I don't really get involved in any extra-curricular at work- we are only a small business and these type of activties are not something the company is really overall involved with. I do however occasionally attend exhibitons and this is a great way to network and meet our customers.

I enjoy working for Peli UK as it really is like a family. I feel as though I'm treated like a human being with a normal life which is refreshing. i ALSO ENJOY THE FACT THAT EVERYDAY IS DIFFERENT AND THE director to me relationship doesn't feel worlds apart, I feel valued and listened to by all levels of seniority.

Be open and excited about plans/ideas you have for the company. I think Peli enjoy having new fresh ideas, and they are really open to new ideas if you put them forward. Speak up too as I think being open and honest is respected here and your opinion won't be discounted.
