Payroll Admin Apprentice Review

My role involves helping the Payroll department to carry out day to day tasks and working with my team to ensure this runs smoothly and properly. I take calls, respond to queries via email and file incoming data. I also process incoming information, or, if unable to do so, allocate this to the correct person.

I've learned how to work within a busy team and be able to be accountable. I feel respected and valued, which helps me as it makes me want to do my very best. I appreciate the necessity of the work I do and I've learned to prioritise daily tasks.

I love my team and my job is pretty great too. Damar have been a massive support as I had issues with my mental health and they've been nothing but supportive. I'm grateful to both Damar and WWL for the opportunity and hope for a long future with WWL.

I've been confident all along how the process works and have been kept up to date. The professionalism of both my work and Damar has been brilliant. I have been kept up to date on meetings and how things proceed with my apprenticeship. I look forward to what the future holds.

I receive an immense amount of support from my employer. They have supported me through a mental health crisis and have been sympathetic and non judgemental. I appreciate this so much as I know how difficult it can be looking from the outside. I cannot thank my employer enough for this.

Damar has been amazingly supportive too, as I feel confident in working towards my goals and know that I can rely on them should I need anything. They've been very flexible with me and I appreciate their patience and support. I'm blown away by this and look forward to carrying on.

Having a qualification with a role is a brilliant idea as it helps guide students through the working life, as this will be new to most apprentices. Even if an apprentice has had experience before, as I had, every work environment is so different so it still can be beneficial.

Yes, WWL is a massive family and there are lots of activities to get involved in. Recently, we celebrated our big birthday and a lot of events were held for this. I got to engage with other departments which was wonderful and really made me feel proud for who I work for.

Yes

It is a thriving wonderful place that I am so proud to work for. I am grateful that I've been given this amazing opportunity and really can't praise it enough. Everyone is valued and diversity is celebrated. I would recommend WWL wholeheartedly to anyone who's looking for such an environment.

I would advise to be yourself, which I know is common sense, but genuine and honesty mean a lot here. People will value you for you and it isn't just something that people say but the truth. If you work hard and contribute what you can, you will be cherished.
