HR Apprentice
We are currently going through a major technology refresh, so the successful applicant will have the option to help create and improve the way we monitor and report HR KPIs and using AI to automate elements of the HR process, such as our new onboarding portal.
Administration:
We onboard many new joiners each month, so being on top of adverts, applications, interviews and all of the record keeping that comes with this requires a lot of organisations.Contract Management:
With existing employees, employment contracts are updated and sent (via Docusign) regularly, or letters of variation issued, so managing the creation, sending and chasing of responses to letters is a large part of the day-to-day.
Data management:
Our HR data is incredibly important and must be kept safe and up to date. The successful apprentice will be responsible for maintaining our records as employees join and leave and their details/ circumstances
change.
Rules, regulation policy and Strategy:
Being on top of HR rules and regulations is the role of the HR Director, however there is scope for the apprentice to get involved in and understand these decisions, alongside the board and our lawyers who
advise us on employment law.
As policies change and require updating, the apprentice will help draft our updated policy documents, ideally feeding in what they have learned in college. In time, the HR apprentice will feed in their thoughts and feelings for how we manager HR Strategy.
Training:
Online attendance with Loughborough College within the first 15 months, one morning per week with onsite sessions in the afternoon to assist with portfolio building and preparation for End Point Assessment Diarised visits from dedicated Trainer/Assessor. Attendance to Loughborough College for an Induction Day. (Induction to take place on the last Wednesday of the month that you are enrolled, 9:30am-3pm. Confirmation of date provided upon enrolment) Attendance to Loughborough College for Functional Skills (if required) On-the-job training Off-the-job training
Training Outcome:
Our business has roughly doubled every year of its existence. Our first finance apprentice who joined 4 years ago is now a Finance Manager, soon to be a chartered accountant and is very much on path to becoming a director. If you choose to stay and grow with the business, reaching HR manager position is very much achievable within 3-4 years. We would also be delighted to pay for our HR assistant to work towards professional examinations e.g. CIPD after they finish the apprenticeship.
