**The Vacancy**

We are looking for an enthusiastic team member to join our HR team as an **Early Careers & Apprenticeships Partner** based at our Support Centre in Worksop once a week and working remote.

As our **Early Careers & Apprenticeships Partner **you’ll take the lead for the development of our team members though managing and maximising the apprenticeship levy, and third-party partnerships & schemes; as well as establishing, implementing, and growing an early career’s offering.

Working collaboratively across our functions to effectively lead and create an offering that supports team members develop knowledge, skills, and behaviours, to be the best they can be. Monitoring market trends, reviewing new available programmes and assessing their suitability for use within the business.

Taking huge pride in what you do, your role will involve being the person in the know when it comes to the wilko apprenticeship levy account. Creating and running reports that demonstrate forecasting 6, 12 and 18 months ahead to aid future planning. Keeping accurate records of those on apprenticeships, timelines surrounding these and reasons for those who leave programme to identify any trends. Tracking completers through to succession to show an ROI. As well as:

- Accountability for future direction on apprenticeships; working with business leaders to understand their needs and then scoping, mapping, and building the relevant relationships to bring on board programmes that meet our aspirations.
- Working in partnership with Line Managers and HRBPs on succession planning, being the SME on how apprenticeships can support future talent and progression.
- Managing the relationship with all partnered training providers and relevant 3rd parties, ensuring contracts are in place and up to date, SLAs are met, legislation is being adhered to and terminating partnerships when required, sourcing the correct replacement.
- Creating, shaping, and leading the delivery of a best-in-class early careers scheme and recruitment process that aligns with the future business strategy for talent acquisition.
- Fully accountable for the full end to end recruitment process for all external apprentice and early career’s positions, managing the relationship with relevant education providers are in place, such as colleges and universities to create the pipeline and brand awareness required.
- Being the central point of contact for apprenticeships, early careers and government funded learning; fully accountable for enrolments, ensuring those involved in onboarding and learner support are fulfilling their role.
- Owning all qualification academy materials to ensure consistency that reflects the team member brand.
- Utilising social media to showcase wilko as an employer of choice and taking accountability for all engagement material to promote the qualification academy internally and externally. Taking ownerships of events that feature within the talent plan such as National Apprenticeship Week and Apprentice Awards Ceremonies.

For this role we need someone who has a minimum of 2 years in a similar role, having managed a levy and training providers. Your knowledge of apprenticeships will be at expert level and if you've been involved in early careers schemes before that would be a bonus (but don't worry if not). You'll have fantastic attention to detail and a figure won't go out of place with you on the case. Influencing and building relationships will come naturally as stakeholder management is essential, along with being an advocate for D&I and building the wilko brand.

We know it’s not just about the role but how we can reward you too, so with this role comes a competitive salary, a brilliant rewards scheme, 33 days holiday entitlement (inc Bank Holidays) rising to 38 days after 5 years’ service, a great pension scheme, an exceptional array of apprenticeships, wilko PERKS flexible benefits (such as great discounts on shopping, days out, holidays, health and fitness and money-saving schemes to cut the costs of childcare), holiday homes and most importantly 20% team member and family discount in store and online

**The Company**

We're a family-owned business with honest and fair family values at our heart.

For ninety years, we've been giving our customers all the stuff they need to brighten up their homes and neaten up their gardens. And, when it comes to our people, we believe in offering the same support, for the things that matter to them too.

So, take a closer look. Discover the history, values, and commitments that make us who we are - and that you'll become part of if you join us.
