ISC Finance Apprentice Review

My role on a day to day basis includes assisting the Senior Financial Manager on ad hoc tasks, monitoring and resolving financial transactions from our main vendors and weekly statements. Maintaining and updating SOX controls and trackers of invoices.

I've improved and developed my skills with Microsoft software like Excel, Sharepoint and OneNote. I've also gained more experience and skill in presenting and communicating with clients/vendors. I've gained new skills in using accounting software SAP and editing report I normally use for a different use.

I've really enjoyed my time at Warner Media. I've had a great time working with my financial team and the wider department and have found the experience I've gained invaluable. I've also, really enjoyed the added bonuses and training experiences that my employer has offered.

My job role has been well organised and structured, helping me settle into my job role and adding in new development opportunities as I gain more skill and understanding. I've had a hard time during covid with my training providers due to changes and online learning which has been difficult but not impossible to manage.

I've received a lot of support from my employer who are always willing to help and understanding when I need to take more time to study and are patience when I need help learning new tasks.

I've received a mix of lots of support and little. The company has gone through lots of changes over my time with them and I've had 5-6 different trainers over 3 years which has felt quite chaotic.

Although, initially the qualification did not help that much with my job due to working for such a large and global organisation, but as I've advanced through my qualification I've managed to find likes and benefitted from the training.

Yes, there are many extra activities that I've been able to get involved in but not as many as I would have liked to due to my own busy non work schedule. Since lockdown there has been less but we managed to do social gatherings via zoom with my department.

Yes

It has been an amazing experience working for WarnerMedia and they provide a great start up for a career in many fields. It has a great working environment with many added benefits to the job.

Make sure that your CV fits with the job role and highlights strengths that they are looking for in there employees. Also, its a great place if you are a film lover no matter what the role so having some knowledge of film helps during the interview process.
