An ongoing strategy to improve standards across all its divisions has seen Rilmac introduce ILM training for key employees.  The ILM (Institute of Leadership Management) training, supplied by Lagat Training of Lincoln, will provide staff with a recognised qualification while guiding the students through all aspects of business management.  The course, which is supported by Government funding, includes such areas as ‘management of conflict within a team’, ‘developing working relationships with stakeholders’, and ‘recruitment, selection and induction’.

HR Manager, Jackie Clark, said, “By improving the wider management skills of key employees there will be benefits for the wider Rilmac staff, senior management and, most importantly, our customers.  With better management systems in place we will be more efficient and more productive.  We hope that those we have selected for this training will pass on their new knowledge and skills to the teams they work with.”

Having received an initial induction in early February 2017 the learners will now grow their knowledge and skills in their free time, heading towards a level three diploma in management.
