Investing in you

At Plumlife, colleague development is our priority. We believe that improving existing skillsets is mutually beneficial for both colleagues and the business, investing in you is a way of investing into our organisation too.

We offer support in a variety of ways; such as training, professional qualifications, apprenticeships and more. We want to help you succeed in your career aspirations, so therefore provide the tools to do so.

Career development

Training

We have a blended approach to learning and offer a wide range of both face-to-face training and e-learning modules; making learning flexible and easily accessible to our colleagues. Our programme of learning is developed each year, ensuring we are tailoring learning opportunities to meet the changing needs of the business.

Professional qualifications

We support the professional development of our colleagues through providing the time and financial support to complete relevant external qualifications. All colleagues are able to apply for a qualification that will help them to improve the skills and knowledge need for their current role, or to help prepare them for future progression.

Apprenticeships

We provide a number of apprenticeship opportunities for colleagues at all levels of the business, for both new starters and people who have been with us a while and want a qualification to match their great skills. Did you know we can even support Apprenticeship completion to Masters level?

Training champions

We are lucky to have some amazing colleagues, with a wealth of knowledge, who are passionate about passing on this expertise to others through our Training Champion programmes. We help these colleagues to achieve this through giving them the skills, tools and opportunities to successfully train and support others.

Institute of Customer Service

We truly place our internal and external customers at the heart of what we do; as members of the Institute of Customer Service we provide all colleagues with the opportunity to gain accredited customer service qualifications.

Colleague conferences and away days

We believe it is important for all our leaders and colleagues to come together to hear key messages, understand the vision of the company and to be able to share their feedback directly. To support this we run a range of conferences, away days and consultative roadshows, courses and qualifications.

Leading and Managing Greatness

We invest in our leaders, providing bespoke training to ensure they have the skills to develop and support their teams. Our 12-18 month leadership development programme is tailored to the needs of our business, and provides a great basis for Managers at all levels to continually develop the skills and knowledge needed.

Investing in you

At Plumlife we spend more than £1,400 per colleague every year on training to help our colleagues attain their goals.
