The last seven months have been a busy time for Max Morris, who is our Apprentice and Membership Administrator at the Norfolk Chamber of Commerce. What does a normal working day look like for you Max? ‘Well a normal working day for me starts at 8.30am and begins with dealing with our new and current members, uploading social media and managing aspects of the website too!’ Being an apprentice has been a real learning experience for Max and has given him the chance to find out what the workplace is all about, ‘I’ve learnt twenty times more on the job than I ever imagined.’
Max’s role is not just desk based, he also is a key member of the digital media team. ‘One of the best parts of my job is when we have events, as I film, edit and prepare the videos for our social media channels. I really enjoy this part of my role as I get to talk to Business people on a personal level, and use my digital media skills too.’ Max came to us from The Hewett Academy, Norwich after studying A level Graphics, Business Studies and Law.
In the future Max is hoping to work towards achieving his level 3 in Business Administration and hopefully secure permanent employment too.
