**Apprentice Insurance Consultant - Drayton NR8 6EF - ARD985034**

You will begin to build a successful career through our robust induction before embarking onto our Apprenticeship programme. Yes, there will be lots to learn but don’t worry, you will be supported throughout your journey to help you to be outstanding in your career in Insurance. But don’t take my word for this, let’s hear from one of our 2022 cohort:
**Kimberley Pettit, ECAP Apprentice, Sevenoaks**

When I started the apprenticeship scheme, I had just finished my A-Levels, knowing I wanted to fulfil a career in the finance sector I began looking for apprenticeships. I was aware that university wasn’t the path I wanted to take as I was excited to get stuck in straight away to a career where I could improve in both my knowledge and behaviour. Right from the beginning of the apprenticeship the experience was engaging and hands on. It began with an 8-week introduction period which taught me a great amount of information about the insurance sector and what my role will entail. The knowledge I gained here not only aided me when it came to my role but also helped me to pass my first test for the apprenticeship. My team in the office has been continuously supportive of me allowing me to develop in the role at a pace which suits me and has encouraged me throughout my revision. So far, I think that my favourite part of the apprenticeship scheme has been learning about my role and how to execute it to the point that I am able to now fulfil my role mainly alone, asking a few questions here and there. The support I have been given throughout my time at Ardonagh has been incredible, from my 8-week introduction with the Learning team, to my colleges in the office, everyone has helped me and never have I felt that I was unable to ask a question. I’d strongly agree that my choice in taking up an apprenticeship in the insurance industry was a good idea and that I have enjoyed the whole experience from the start to where I am now.

Making sure you are prepared to succeed through our induction and on-boarding programme, that will see you learn and develop your knowledge and skills that will be crucial for the role of Apprenticeship Insurance Consultant. You will be supported through experienced mentors and buddies throughout your Apprenticeship journey. This is a fantastic opportunity to earn whilst learning great skills and setting solid foundations for your career ahead.

Following a successful induction, you will undertake an 18-month apprenticeship programme which will provide supported studying towards achieving a level 3 qualification in Insurance. Once you have obtained your Chartered Insurance Institute (CII) certification, this will enable you to evolve and flourish in Ardonagh Advisory through our internal talent programmes in areas such as Leadership, Sales and Insurance to name a few.

Being part of the Emerging Careers Programme means your future is looking very bright indeed.
