The Opportunity:

Reporting to the Training Manager, this role will see you building and nurturing crucial client and apprentice relationships. This is a highly autonomous role that will require you to be "out and about" in the field for the majority of your time.

You will manage a portfolio of apprentices and will be the first point of contact for the apprentice and their employers.

• Building relationships with all apprentices and clients within the portfolio and striving to drive portfolio growth;
• Scheduling and attending quarterly visits with apprentices and their employers;
• Monitor and find solutions for or escalate any issues identified as required;
• Record any meeting notes or client/trainee interactions within the CRM;
• Following up on leads supplied by management to drive growth of placement opportunities for trainees

The Ideal Candidate:

This role will suit a genuine people person with an eye for detail and strong relationship building skills. You will have strong organisation skills and the ability to balance a busy schedule of visits with the required administration and reporting activities. To excel in this role, you will demonstrate:

• Excellent communication skills with the ability to build and nurture relationships and liaise with individuals at all levels;
• Strong attention to detail;
• Experience working within a database-driven environment and willingness to make notes and maintain records;
• A valid unencumbered NSW Drivers License;
• A Cert IV in WHS or willingness to complete this (paid for by the company, valued at $6,000!);
• Exposure to the building and construction industry or another related trade would be highly regarded

*The successful candidate must be willing to undergo a criminal record and drug and alcohol test*
 
The Benefits:

This is a great company to work for - you will have access to generous training opportunities and will have all of the tools of trade that you need to succeed, including a car, phone and ipad. You will support a dynamic, passionate manager within a tight-knit team. Play a major role in driving one of the core aspects of the business!
