Sophie gets to work

We’d like to say huge congratulations to one of our Project SEARCH participants, who has just started an apprenticeship with Bristol City Council!

Sophie is going to be working as a Business Administration Apprentice within the Performance and Customer Engagement team of the Council’s Citizen Services Department.

The role will be many and varied and will include tasks like maintaining and updating databases, ordering goods, generating invoices, and arranging meetings.

Although Sophie had tried a number of different positions as part of her internship programme, including Childcare and Hospitality, it was really a placement at the ABS Planning and Building Regulations team at BCC that  highlighted her brilliant organisation skills, focus and hardworking attitude and helped her decide that administration is a role that really suited.

We are really looking forward to continuing to work with Sophie as she settles in to her new role and getting the opportunity to see her flourish.
