  • Lead the modernisation of induction delivery, including blended learning, interactive sessions, and opportunities for peer connection

  • Manage all induction logistics, including venues, virtual platforms, accessibility arrangements, materials, and hospitality

  • Maintain accurate attendance and completion records, updating learning management systems and sharing information with relevant managers

  • Provide high-quality coordination and administrative support to leadership development and OD programmes

  • Support live programme delivery, both in person and virtually, including participant support and use of digital tools

  • Gather, analyse, and act on feedback to continuously improve induction and leadership programmes

  • Build positive working relationships with internal stakeholders and act as a welcoming first point of contact for new starters

  • Contribute to improvement projects, evaluations, and pilots that enhance learning and development across the Trust
