Our Core Competencies
Our core competencies underpin everything that we do and are the behaviours we expect from all our team members. This means not only do they underpin our processes internally such as 1-1s and training but it also forms part of our hiring process. If you come to an interview here expect to be asked questions about how you have and could demonstrate our core behaviours.
Have a think about these:
We give back to our colleagues by investing in there self-development with tools such as our Assetz Academy. In the last 12 months, how have you invested in your self-development?
In order to meet our customers’ expectations, we must hold ourselves and others accountable. We take pride in our work and want to do this. How do you hold yourself and others accountable?
Our Leadership Competencies
Our leadership competencies identify behaviours our leaders exhibit and our colleagues can expect. We provide additional training to our leaders to support them in developing these behaviours to manage engaged and successful teams. We want prospective leaders to have the right behaviours so we’ll ask questions related to these for example:
We support each other to remain resilient in challenging circumstances. How can we support you to be resilient?
We want our managers to motivate our teams but we understand that many different factors can influence this. How would you generate motivation within your team?
