Lorna Rawlings, Business Analyst Apprentice
My name is Robina and I am an apprentice business analyst. I have been on the apprenticeship now for 14 months and it has been very challenging and enjoyable. As a business analyst I run workshops, elicit requirements, put them into a requirement catalogue and create programme maps. These are just a few things that a business analyst does. I have worked on some very interesting projects such as the COVID-19 schemes.
I have worked with some amazing people and joining the apprenticeship was the one of the best careers moves I have made. I look forward to seeing how far I can develop.
Robina Bashir, Business Analyst Apprentice
Hi, I’m Kyran Whitehead. I joined HMRC as an apprentice Project Support Officer, I now have a full-time permanent position as an Associate Project Manager. When I first saw the apprenticeship scheme advertised, I applied. I was impressed by both the high starting wage, the opportunities and qualifications I could get.
During my apprenticeship I worked in IT delivery as a project support officer. When I started, I had a very limited understanding of project management and no idea what a Project Support Officer did, so I would never have expected to be involved with creating and transforming digital tax platforms that would be used by people across the country. This was exciting for me as I felt a part of changes which would affect millions of people daily.
The main thing I took from the two years was a great network of friends and colleagues from around the country, and I can’t stress enough the importance of this. I know the qualifications I have achieved, and essential life skills gained, along with the work I have been doing over the last three years, will allow me to progress further within the Civil Service. Who knows how far I’ll get?
