Why did you choose an apprenticeship?
I chose an apprenticeship because I felt that there was more of a structured lifestyle. Since my work and education benefit and feed off each other, making me use my time more productively compared to being in full-time education.
What are the benefits of your apprenticeship?
I know that my apprenticeship will help me progress in every way I can possibly think of, which is a huge benefit. I earn while I learn, and my apprenticeship has opened so many new doors for me and will help build my confidence as I am learning new things I’ve never known how to do before.
What is your favourite aspect of working at TB+A?
The way I get treated within the groups. All the managers are really nice and it genuinely feels like I’m working alongside them, rather than working for them.
What are your future plans?
To gain top grades in my degree whilst also really pushing my apprenticeship to gain the most amount of experience as I can to eventually being able to take a lead on projects. It is great to see that there is room to grow and develop within TB+A and I look forward to gaining valuable experience for the years to come.
