At P&A we are
committed to the development of people. Building a career is
very different to just getting and doing a job.
We fulfill our
commitment to the building of your career in a variety of ways:
Education
and Training
Qualifications are essential
to you and to us.
We strongly believe our colleagues
have the right to be affiliated with professional organisations
that represent
their passion,
skills-base and aspirations.
We actively support the pursuit
of professional qualifications at all levels, offering our
people a flexible package of
study leave, payment of tuition costs, internal support
as well as
external guidance and mentoring where necessary.
We encourage
our colleagues to think out of their box when it comes to their
futures. If it will help your career and
increase
your
confidence and ability to do your job we will help you to
pursue it.
We regularly employ an external
professional exam trainer and learning expert to set up bespoke
study programmes.
This
enables
people
to maximise their exam potential. We are proud, for example,
of the flawless record this has given us in the Joint insolvency
Examinations’ exams
to date.
Personal and Team Development
P&A
Group take great pride in the development of people in the business.
We appraise colleagues on a six
monthly basis, focusing on developmental needs and individual growth.
We
believe that training has to be bespoke, designed to meet the
needs of each person, offering, for example,
one-on-one
coaching to those who find they are stimulated by
the regular guidance
and
input of an expert coach.
We offer six monthly open behavioural
skills training sessions that deal with current attitudinal change
needs.
Colleagues
are encouraged to attend, equipped with issues and examples
of things
arising in their daily working lives and to build personalised
objectives to take back to the workplace to make the
necessary improvements.
We have introduced a ‘Future
P&A Programme’, inviting
to attend those who believe they have a significant role
to play in the future of our business.
People taking
part in this Programme will receive regular mentoring
and coaching, based upon agreed personal objectives,
and these
will be fed back into the performance and appraisal
system.

Group are committed to ensuring all of our people are as up-to-date
as possible.
We provide regular internal technical
training sessions, have a full-time Compliance Officer committed
