I work within the procurement function, managing order books and raising purchase orders. This involves negotiating with suppliers and having regular catch ups with them.
Yes, I have learnt skills in professionalism, organisation, teamwork and communication, as well as many more that I can develop along the course of the scheme.
I thoroughly enjoy the different opportunities offered by my scheme, the idea of different placements offers different exposure. The off the job aspects are also great opportunities.
Fantastic, the placement structure is great and I think the college/assignment aspect is well organised. I am looking forward to a 5 day trip to the Lake District with my cohort next month.
I know where to go with any questions and I always receive an adequate response in good time.
The college assignments are well explained, however I feel I often have to go into more detail when asking questions about how I can make improvements. However, on the job my team are excellent in supporting my development.
I am able to gain and develop skills on my apprenticeship, before performing them to perfection when I enter my exit role in 2024.
Networking events with directors etc
Yes
It is a great company with great opportunities, the work is interesting every single day.
Be confident, be yourself and present your unique skills.
