Three more of our staff have completed their modern apprenticeship training, supported by our insurance partner, Aviva.
Georgia Bunt, Briony Vincent and Stacey Woodley studied with Davies Group in order to deepen their knowledge and understanding of the industry and sharpen their skills in working in this complex field.
Stacey, who’s been with the firm over 22 years, says: “The apprenticeship has given me more confidence within my role and enabled me to share my knowledge and skills with my colleagues.
“I faced some unexpected challenges on the way, but I was well supported by the managers at Rowett and my trainers to achieve my final goal.
“I would recommend anyone working in the industry looking for a long standing career to do this apprenticeship as it is extremely helpful.”
Gareth Rowett, Commercial and Agricultural Director, commented: “It doesn’t matter how long you’ve been working or how senior your role, you can always learn more. I’m doing an apprenticeship myself and it’s been great to see the development of our staff. We’re all grateful to Aviva for the support to improve our skills.”
Georgia, who’s a fairly new members of staff, says: “I thoroughly enjoyed the apprenticeship and learned vital knowledge that I needed to pursue my ongoing career as a commercial broker.”
And Briony adds: “Rowett allowed us to have time for revision and meetings within work time and were very supportive of our learning. The staff at Davies were very helpful, giving us a lot of tools and meetings to support our education.”
Linzie Barnes, Learning and Development Consultant at Aviva, said: “One of the biggest issues brokers are facing is attracting and retaining talent. Aviva is proud to be a part of this story by funding three apprentices who are now coming to the end of their learning journey.
“Together, Rowett and Aviva are investing in up-skilling talent through knowledge, skills and behaviours with the added bonus that the apprentice attains their Certificate of Insurance at the end of it.
“It’s fantastic to see a broker like Rowett embracing this opportunity and growing their talent.”
