Resourcing Capability Manager Review

I improve the recruitment capability of our 1600 general managers, driving the overall recruitment agenda through direct communication, upskilling and guidance. Every day is different, however I manage our District Recruitment Ambassadors, frontline facing recruitment tools, and work on projects to improve overall recruitment across the company.

I have developed existing excel and organisational skills throughout my apprenticeship. I have learnt how to use Canva, which I have used to create guides and tools for our frontline. I have learnt how to use sharepoint to create pages.

I enjoy the workshops, I find them engaging even though they are online. I find the tasks on Bud to be overwhelming sometimes and overall it can be difficult to balance with my workload. I have found I need to dedicate more than the allocated 6 hours, which is frustrating. I would have liked to hear from someone who had done it before, to get a sense of what was to come.

The programme was well organised at the start, however I have had a number of tutors which made keeping on top of the tasks a challenge. I now have an excellent tutor, so can see how it was meant to run from the start. The workshops and CIPD assignments have been well set out from the start.

My line manager has been very supportive and has helped me wherever she can to get through the tasks. She has given me the allocated time and encouraged me to protect it every week, so I can keep on top of the tasks.

As previously mentioned, I have had three tutors throughout my apprenticeship which has meant that the support has not always been consistent. However, the tutor I have now has been very supportive and has gone above and beyond to help me. The support I receive for the CIPD assignments is great, the workshops and supporting documents are always perfectly linked to what I have to do.

The qualification has definitely helped me perform better, I have a more well rounded view of HR and understand legislation better, This has helped me make better decisions and contributions. I have also been able to better collaborate with other teams, creating stronger working relationships.

There are countless activities to get involved in at M&B. There are socials in the office every payday, summer and Christmas socials, networking opportunities and groups to join. There is a knitting group, different sports, D&I groups and development groups. There has recently been a couple of networking events for international women's day.

Yes

The culture of support and growth is great, I have learnt so much in the 18 months I have been here and have been constantly supported by my line manager. I like that there are lots of different teams, and therefore endless opportunities.
