Work
As an apprentice, you’ll work at a company and get hands-on experience. You’ll gain new skills and work alongside experienced staff.

This involves optimising legacy income, liaising with executors, reviewing case files, and ensuring the RSPCA receives its full entitlement. You'll also provide cover for team members during busy periods or annual leave.
There will also be the opportunity to shadow senior members of the team to get exposure to people and risk management and strategic business practices.
