Our assets are our people - Ellis Recruitment Group Careers

At the Ellis Recruitment Group, our greatest assets are our people. We are continually helping our team grow and reach their full potential. Training shouldn’t just be for new starters.

During 2020 and the first lockdown, a number of the Ellis Recruitment Group team either completed or started training programs enhancing their professional skills, helping us grow as a Group. At the start of the first lockdown, several of our team started their NVQ Level 4 and 5 Apprenticeship in Recruitment. Combined with their training and based on recent feedback from their internal and external Trainers, the team should achieve either merit or distinction grades, a phenomenal achievement.

Internally the Ellis Recruitment Group team has remarked that their confidence has significantly increased and they have learnt new technical skills. The external trainer has been impressed at the level of competence and thorough understanding displayed from all of the Ellis Recruitment Group team. Below is feedback from some of our team who have completed or taken part in various training programs, funded by the Ellis Recruitment Group.

The Ellis Recruitment Group have invested time in helping me improve my knowledge within my current sector of recruitment. During the first lockdown, we spent many months training relevant skills and knowledge I can put to use to this day. The Ellis Recruitment Group also put me on an NVQ for Recruitment to help me build my career. I originally came from a hospitality background where sales and customer service is natural. Recruitment has very similar skills but certainly a very challenging profession.

The training course I attended was very detailed, competitive and enjoyable. It helped me improve my knowledge exponentially, and I was competing against some employees in the company who have been here much longer. The workload was easy to work around and worthwhile. We had a very experienced trainer and learnt a considerable amount from him. Now I am busier with work; the course helps when working with clients and candidates.

I wouldn't be able to do my job right now without the training I have received. It certainly has taught me a lot and equally a lot more to learn.

As a member of the support team, my knowledge of both the recruitment and technology industry was limited. I found the course to be super beneficial as it filled in all the gaps missing between what I did and didn't know which has enabled me to be a more versatile member of the Ellis Recruitment Group team. It was evident from the knowledge of the trainer that he had a hugely diverse amount of experience in the industry and he made the sessions, fun, impactful and aimed at the skills we needed to improve on.

Ellis Recruitment Group supported me with training through APSCo into first-line management. The course emphasised planning my day strategically and conducting meaningful meetings without disrupting the day-to-day responsibilities. Ellis Recruitment Group allowed me time away from the desk to develop my managerial skills and grow as a recruitment professional.

One module that truly stood out for me was ‘Building a high-performance team. This segment focused on crucial aspects such as time management and team motivation. In today’s fast-paced world, losing track of time is a common challenge. The training provided insights into effective day planning and scheduling dedicated time for team interactions and personal tasks.
