When you become a part of the Lifetime Group, you’ll be provided with clear and accessible career growth opportunities through structured learning and leadership development. Whether you are at the beginning of your career, looking to strengthen your current role, or preparing for leadership responsibilities, we’ll support you to achieve your ambitions.
Your journey begins with an immersive induction workshop, where you’ll meet a range of people, including fellow new-to-Lifetime Group colleagues and some of the key people from across the Group who you will encounter along your journey.
This is followed by a tailored onboarding process to ensure you have all the information and tools you need to get to know your role, the part you play in helping us achieve our vision, and learn how our values are embedded in everything we do.
Our group development programme, Journey of a Lifetime, supports you to take control of your career growth, at all levels. With career guidance, learning resources, and tools you need to build competence and confidence in your role, and evolve your career.
Whether you’re looking to refine a specific skill, work towards leadership, or complete a more comprehensive learning programme, Journey of a Lifetime provides a flexible and structured pathway for you to identify areas of improvement then harness structured frameworks to grow and evolve.
Our skills and leadership frameworks define the key competencies needed at every stage of your career with Lifetime Group, helping you to shape a development path that is both structured and flexible to your aspirations.
Designed in collaboration with managers and functional leaders, our skills frameworks outline essential skills you need to succeed, and how they can be developed over time. They serve as a guide to create personalised development plans, helping you to enhance your capabilities and thrive in your role.
These are complimented by our leadership frameworks, providing clear expectations at all leadership levels, ensuring alignment with our strategic business goals and supporting individuals who aspire to lead. We’re creating leaders who are:
Responsible: acting with integrity, accountability, and fostering a positive team culture.
Visionary: setting strategic direction and inspiring others.
Evolution-oriented: driving continuous improvement and innovation.
Our approach to development is shaped by our mission, vision, and values. We want our people to build the skills they need to succeed in their roles today while preparing for the future.
Once you've developed strong capability in your core role, you'll be encouraged to focus on one of our five future skills. These are the skills we've identified as being important to our future success, both now and in the years ahead, and they provide an opportunity to focus your development on a future focused skill area.
Some of the most valuable learning comes from practical experience, working with others and applying new skills in real situations, so we focus our development opportunities on in-role development, social learning, and professional development.
