Sector Training Overview- Administration

Recruiting for admin roles

Are you recruiting for admin roles? We can help with our cost-free recruitment and sector training programme, providing interview-ready candidates. 

A recent recruitment survey has revealed that UK businesses are hiring permanent staff at the slowest rate in a year, attributed to companies struggling to recruit qualified candidates.  

Since the outbreak of COVID-19, the UK has seen record highs in vacancies posted, and the June 2022 ONS report shows that the administration sector has seen an 82% year-on–year increase. However, rising vacancies and a shortage of candidates have created a difficult landscape for businesses to navigate.  

How can we help you recruit for your admin roles? 

When you partner with us, the candidates we put forward for your vacancies will have received in-depth employment support and sector-specific training. This training includes: 

Training includes:

The topics we cover give candidates an overview of the sector, exploring the functions and activities that role requires, as well as taking a more in-depth look at how administrative roles function within a wide range of business areas.

To ensure our candidates are as prepared as they can be we also cover: 

  • Communications skills, in particular the importance of active listening to ensure a positive working relationship.
