I love my job because I get to work with lots of people within Student Support and get a good understanding of all the services this team offers, as well as liaising with colleagues across the university and even outside it. It\u2019s a busy and varied role in which I\u2019m using and building lots of different skills.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>What apprenticeship are you undertaking, and what made you decide to do so?<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m doing a Digital Marketing apprenticeship with SR Education.
