Workforce Development and Diversity Administrator, Lisa

Lisa, Workforce Development and Diversity Administrator
Hartlepool Borough Council

"I started off working for the council as an apprentice and then moved into an administrative assistant role. I then progressed onto the next level and became an administrator for the workforce development team.

I am responsible for the administration of the council's leadership and management development programme, which deals with around 500 managers. I also administrate our placement programme and complete any invoices that come into our section. I am also heavily involved in the administration for our NVQ programmes.

I like being involved in lots of different projects and having lots of things happening at once. I like the organisational side of things and seeing events that I have helped organise run smoothly.

In addition to my Apprenticeship, I have undertaken a level 3 management qualification.  I have also completed a level 2 NVQ in Team Leading and a Level 2 NVQ in Customer Service. Plus I've completed various corporate training courses, such as health and safety, diversity in the workplace and stress management for staff.

In future, I would like to see my role developing into an administrative team leader, as I think this would be a natural progression and I really enjoy the area of work that I am in."
