How have you found the Apprenticeship so far?

Time management and organisation is crucial to success when studying alongside work.

How do you use your apprenticeship learnings in your day-to-day role?

Developing behaviours around collaboration and effective communication have helped in numerous scenarios including holding stakeholder meetings, presentations, and day-to-day communication with both Regional and Head Office colleagues.l
