Training: Our 12 week training programme is delivered face to face in the office.
The first 8 weeks focus on core learning, followed by continued in‑office support through to week 12 as you build confidence and embed your skills.

Holiday Allowance During Training: To ensure you gain the maximum benefit from our training programme and feel fully supported as you begin your career, holiday will be limited during the initial training period. One day of holiday is permitted within the first 8 weeks. From weeks 8 to 12, holiday requests will be reviewed on a case‑by‑case basis.
Our approach to Hybrid Working: With hybrid working, you have more flexibility, as you usually only have to visit our office once a week and work remotely for the rest of the time. You can always opt to work from the office more frequently if that suits you better. When we organise training and events you may be required to attend in person for the duration.
Salary: The starting salary is £26,230, plus a comprehensive benefits package. Upon completing the training and coaching period, which typically lasts 12 weeks, the salary will automatically increase to £26,550.

Location: Our vibrant Leicester office is conveniently located in the city centre, just a short walk from the train station and easily accessible via major road routes.
