People Development

Growing performance by maximising talent

Shaw Trust recognises that the superior knowledge and excellent skills of our employees are vital if we are to deliver a first class service to our customers, continue to grow and maintain a competitive edge.

As an Investor in People, Shaw Trust and its People Development Team are committed to creating a learning environment that promotes and supports individual development. At the same time, we want Shaw Trust to be a great place to work where employees have job satisfaction, grow with us and make a long-term commitment to stay.

From our comprehensive Induction Welcome and Discovery programme through to role specific accredited training and beyond we actively encourage personal development. But development isn't restricted to training - it's anything that helps you to grow, in ability, skills, confidence, inter-personal skills and much more.

Learning is most effective when it is enjoyable, made accessible and with you in control. Within People Development our goal is to make learning something that everyone in Shaw Trust is passionate about. Therefore we use many different delivery methods including:

  • Online learning
  • Blended learning
  • On the job training
  • Classroom based group learning
  • Virtual classrooms
  • Learning Champions
Career progression is also an essential part of your development and learning. Many of our staff have progressed through the company to managerial and senior positions.

“Shaw Trust has given me both the confidence and support to personally develop my skills and abilities. I have been able to access promotional opportunities and, from joining the Trust as a temporary secretary progressed to District Manager with a team of 56 and I am now responsible for managing special projects.” - Sue

Life is a journey, and careers are too. Throughout your time with us you’ll find plenty of support and guidance. In other words, if you’re looking for space to grow and develop, you’ll find it with Shaw Trust.
