HOW DO I PREPARE FOR MY WORKING DAY
I check emails the night before, ensure I get enough rest and plan for the goals I expect to reach for that day.
TASKS I DO IN THE MORNING
Checking emails, processing invoices, raising purchase orders or any urgent tasks like a BACS run.
MY WORK COLLEAGUES
I woke alongside the finance department, the team consists of myself, a finance apprentice, then two finance managers and CFO.
LUNCH BREAK
I have my lunch in the office because I like the quietness, there is also a staff room I can use but I prefer not to.
AFTERNOON TASKS
Learning new tasks or skills, or training towards taking up more responsibilities.
BEST PART OF THE DAY
All of it !
APPRENTICE TOP TIPS
Ensure you can be organised and analytical and you will never have an issue.
SUPPORT RECEIVED
I am supported in every way possible by Inspire ATA. My tutor ensures she works closely with everyone in the group. My line manager always checks in on me to ensure I am enjoying the role and she is always there to answer any queries. I’ve always been made to know that if I’m struggling I can ask anyone at Inspire or LMP which is very reassuring to me that I am right where I am supposed to be.
FINISH TIME : 4:30pm
