Graduate Trainee Profiles Ellie, Graduate Trainee 2014-15 Degree: BSc Psychology Placements: Careers Network; Marketing and Market Research; Alumni Relations, College of Social Sciences I applied for the GTS as I wanted to pursue a career in HE management. My range of placements has given me a key insight into the work of many areas across the University and greatly developed a variety of skills, such as time management, budget management and strategic thinking. I have particularly enjoyed the project work in each placement as it allows for very independent work and I have had the opportunity to produce valuable and impactful outputs. The GTS also facilitates the development of a sophisticated network of contacts not just in UoB but across the sector, further enabling a long-term career in HE. The scheme is very well-supported and therefore also offers a multitude of opportunities beyond the placements. Over the last year I have attended a variety of training sessions, shadowed senior managers of the University, managed a group of student staff members and got the chance to present at a national conference.
