What's in it for you?
We expect each individual employee to make a significant contribution to our organisation. In return we work hard at being a good employer. We invest heavily in the development of our people to allow them to achieve and deliver their full potential – to be the best. We have been recognised as an 'Investor in People' since 1998 and, in 2006, our in-house learning centre became part of the learndirect Scotland branded network, recognised for meeting their quality standards and for promoting lifelong learning.
We know that people learn in different ways, so we try to provide as many different types of learning options as possible. We also realise that the investment made at the early stages of your career with us will help you to quickly become confident in your ability to perform your job to a competent level. We have a detailed corporate induction programme in addition to the on-job training you will receive within your team. For an Assessment Officer role, for example, the initial intensive training stage can last up to 12 weeks. After this, development will continue for up to six months while you are carrying out the role. During this time, you are given additional support and training, as necessary. Beyond this you may, if you wish, undertake further training and development such as paralegal courses.
Whatever your role, and throughout your time with us, you will work with your line manager to identify your personal development needs. You will also receive any training you need to fulfil the requirements of your job.
