Your job specific training will depend on the department you join. For example, members of our sales and customer services departments attend an in-house training course.
Members of our financial services department will receive a personal training and competence scheme designed for you to assess where you are at now and how to get to where you want to be.
However, regardless of your chosen specialism, you will be guaranteed ongoing commitment and support from you managers and the Learning & Development team.
The initial training you receive will be backed up by regular appraisals with your line manager to ensure you are consistently fulfilling your potential. If you have the drive to succeed then you can expect excellent career development here.
