Where an administrator becomes someone who shapes what you say
An apprenticeship is a real, paid job. The apprentice works for an employer and trains with us at the same time, and comes out with a nationally recognised qualification and the experience to go with it.
The short answer
Apprentices without level 2 English and Maths will need to achieve this level prior to taking the end-point assessment. Employers may set their own criteria.
The employer sets the real bar, so treat this as a guide. If somebody is close but not quite there, it is still worth the conversation.
Shaping, supporting and delivering marketing plans alongside the Marketing Manager.
Researching to develop and deliver products and services against customer needs that keep changing.
Covers market research, customer insight, product and service development
Researching, developing, promoting and distributing through the channels that reach the audience you actually want.
Covers promotion, distribution, channel selection, target audiences
These roles sit in an internal marketing team or in an agency advising external clients, and the apprenticeship covers both.
Covers in-house marketing teams, agency working, client deliverables
Marketing teams work with external agencies on the specialist parts of a campaign. Briefing them well is a skill in itself.
Covers working with external agencies, campaign delivery
Every apprenticeship ends with an independent assessment of the knowledge, skills and behaviours learned on the programme, carried out by an organisation with no connection to us or to the employer. Everything before it exists to get the apprentice ready for it.
Work launched in class and completed in the job, building the evidence the assessor will look at.
The employer, the apprentice and the tutor. Half an hour. Progress, targets, and anything getting in the way.
Marked by a tutor who is not theirs, so the feedback is honest and the real thing holds no surprises.
Most of our apprentices carry on, usually with the same employer and usually into a wider role. Which route is right depends on the job being done, so it is worth a conversation rather than a guess.
