HR & Training Manager - Banffshire

HR and Training Manager Jobs

A company is only as effective as its employees, and its employees are only as good as their training. In many sectors, training has to be a continuous process as laws, technologies and optimum methodologies change constantly. In such businesses, ensuring training is completed can be a full-time job, and that is where the HR and training manager comes in. They are tasked with ensuring all staff members are fully up to speed on whatever systems and processes pertain to that business, and will also work strategically so that future training needs are met.

They also have other HR tasks to perform, but these vary depending on the size and nature of the business and which HR areas are already covered by other managers. In many cases, the HR and training manager spends much of their time designing and delivering training programmes and keeping records of the workforce’s attainments. As well as liaising with employees, there will be plenty of contact with senior management and possibly a legal team to ensure funding and compliance.

The skills required

A solid background in HR is a basic requirement of the HR and training manager. This should ideally have been at a senior or managerial level so that the essential elements of human resources are covered. A background in designing and implementing training programmes is also a key asset, as many programmes are not off-the-shelf and are dependent upon the blend of disciplines present in the company.

Since all sectors have their own needs, you will ideally have HR, managerial and/or training experience in the same industry. Your communications skills also need to be right on the money as your programmes need to be understood and completed across the whole company, possibly for years.

HR & Training Manager Jobs in Banffshire

The historic county of Banffshire is now split between the County of Moray and Aberdeenshire, but still retains a sense of identity. It traditionally wedged its way into Scotland from the Moray Firth at its north, between Moray, Aberdeenshire and Inverness-shire which it bordered. Its county town was Banff, which is a small town of about 4000 population on the northern coast, now part of Aberdeenshire. The south-western tip of the old county would now sit right in the heart of the Cairngorms National Park.

Banffshire is a small and relatively sparsely populated area of Scotland, so opportunities for HR & Training Manager positions are limited. However it does sit on the main A98 coast road, as well as the A97 and A947, so is well connected. Commuting opportunities for jobs in Aberdeen or Inverness should not be ruled out.
