Training & Development

The Group believes that our ability to remain a high performance business depends upon the commitment, determination and creativity of our people. To this end, we provide an environment that encourages the continuous development of employees through comprehensive training programmes. 

 Every year more than 1,000 employees take part in over 100 in-house courses held at our training centres in London, Bristol, Coventry and Manchester. These courses cover subjects such as Customer Service, Health & Safety, Selling Skills and Information Technology.

All employees are encouraged to attain externally recognised qualifications. Throughout the last 12 months, over 1200 staff worked towards NVQs and nearly 1000 have studied for Basic Skills such as Literacy and Numeracy.

Building on past successes, we are continuing with our acclaimed in-house Management Development Programme. Training delivery, both in depot and around the country, has been very successful and participation continues to increase year on year. The Group`s continued focus on employee development has contributed to Bestway retaining the coveted ‘Investor in People` award.
