Burton, who comes from Rugby and is a former pupil of Ashlawn School, says her apprenticeship at the MTC had opened up a wide range of career options: "This award shows that hard work doesn't go unnoticed. I love my job and progressing in my career, so it gives me a great sense of achievement.
"I’d 100% recommend the MTC business admin apprenticeship to anyone looking for a business-related apprenticeship, particularly as the scheme is structured to rotate us around various departments within the MTC,” she continues. “This gives us so much experience and a very good understanding of the business as a whole."
Sharon Anderson, manager of the MTC's business admin apprentice team, says she is delighted with Burton’s success: “She’s worked in a number of departments and has given total commitment to all that she does. Olivia has applied herself to her studies and produced work of a very high standard. She is keen to develop her skills and demonstrates a high level of enthusiasm and a positive approach, and is looking forward to developing her career at the MTC.
"Although the MTC is well known and recognised for its engineering apprenticeships, we’ve a very well developed business administration apprenticeship in which apprentices are given responsibility in a real business environment from their first day,” adds Anderson.
MTC apprentice Connor Fulton was also shortlisted for the same award, and will receive a certificate for his efforts.
