Business Administrator Level 3 Apprenticeship
Home / Business Administrator Level 3 Apprenticeship
The Business Administrator level 3 apprenticeship teaches a set of highly transferable skills and behaviours, which along with practical knowledge, can be applied in small and large businesses from across the public, private sector and charitable sectors.
The business administration role may involve working independently or as part of a team. It includes developing, implementing, maintaining and improving the efficiency of administrative services.
Overall, responsibilities will vary depending on the business. Typically this includes providing central or departmental support to different functions of the organisation. Good administrators are able to demonstrate strong communication skills, both written and verbal, a proactive approach to managing priorities and have good problem-solving and decision-making skills.
The flexibility and responsiveness required in many business administration roles allow the apprentice to develop a wide range of skills often leading more senior business administrators to develop the potential for people management responsibilities through mentoring or coaching others on the way to a team leader or management role.
Many individuals in these roles will interact with internal or external customers. We embed customer service skills within the Business Administration apprenticeship.
The entry requirement fwill be decided by each employer, but may typically be five GCSEs at Grade C or higher. English/Maths is not required however it will need to be completed by the end of the apprenticeship.
This apprenticeship is ideal for current or new employees working in an office environment with responsibility for developing the quality of the administration service.
This apprenticeship duration is 15 months.
