Flagship Group launches its in-house academy to help build the workforce of the future

At Flagship, we invest in our people. We want to ensure they have the right support, skills and knowledge to continue to do great things and work towards achieving our goal of solving the housing crisis in the East of England. 

We’ve launched our own in-house Academy; a new team and digital platform to offer staff greater training and career opportunities. 

Helen Walsham, Deputy CEO of Flagship Group said: “It would be so easy to say that we won’t launch the Academy because of all the issues around Covid. I actually think it’s exactly the right time to launch it, because we all need a little bit of hope. 

We all need something to do and something positive and what better thing to be doing than to be improving your opportunities going forward, when we come out of this on the other side.” 

With the right tools at their fingertips, staff can develop the skills they want to at a time that suits them. And by further investing in our people’s future, we will continue to recruit, attract and retain the very best talent, helping to build the workforce of the future. 

Not only will the academy benefit staff, it will also provide opportunities to our current and future customers – supporting them to develop new skills and setting them up for success in the future.  

Flagship’s academy will positively impact our communities, customers, and staff; helping us move one step closer towards solving the housing crisis in the East of England.
