We aim to place the individual at the centre of everything we do. We want to be an effective organisation that produces great outcomes rather than an efficient machine that churns through candidates, trainees and consultants. We take time to get to know each person, understanding their challenges, motivations and aspirations so that our support gives you the best chance of success.

As a trainee, you will spend time working online alongside others in a cohort of 16-20 people. There is a focus on doing things well but there is plenty of space for fun and individual expression. When working with our client we will stay in touch through regular 121s and communications - we will coach you to keep improving and make the best impression possible. We will also have regular events throughout the year and are looking to build more opportunities to get involved.
