Supporting professional development and global career opportunities for all colleagues is a fundamental commitment of Scott Bader. We invest millions in effective training and recruitment to support growth and ensure the business has the people and skills needed to succeed.

We run a number of initiatives all designed to unleash our colleagues’ potential:

• A new framework for leadership and functional competencies that drive the right values and behaviours for self and business
• An online learning platform accessed across the world, which alongside peer learning and mentoring will address individually tailored personal development plans
• Training Assessment Scheme (TAS)
• Maintaining our Investors in People Gold Award since 2017
• Work experience opportunities
• Bursaries and internships
• RISE Leadership Development Programme to develop our diverse leaders of the future
• University placements and degrees
• Women In Leadership programme

“Nearly 70% of colleagues that took part in our first Women in Leadership programme have progressed to new or expended roles.”
