  • 1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
  • I am on the Project Management apprenticeship, currently in my second of two years. My project team are delivering the capability to audio record face-to-face interviews in branch, across mortgages, banking & savings, wealth and Business Banking. I am leading the delivery to Business Banking and I am responsible for many deliverables including training, communications & engagement, user details, hardware and software. I liaise with my internal and external suppliers and update my stakeholders with progress on a regular basis.

  • 2. Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
  • Chairing audio conference calls was a steep learning curve as I found it difficult not to see the attendees. However, by being encouraged - but not pushed - out of my comfort zone has helped me overcome my nerves.
