The Talent Academy concept was originally formed in June 2015 as an initiative by United Lincolnshire Hospitals NHS Trust to support engagement of younger people into its workforce.

Due to its success, the Academy evolved in April 2016 incorporating its Lincolnshire stakeholders to strengthen and support local partnership and the benefits of collaboration.  

Today, the Lincolnshire Talent Academy is an umbrella body made up of health and care organisations within the County.  Led by United Lincolnshire Hospitals NHS Trust, the Academy represents a wide range of stakeholders from the health and care sector.

What do we do?

The Academy delivers proactive services to aid recruitment and skills development of our current and future workforce, whilst also ensuring the portability and integration of skills across the health and care system.

As employers, we work with students, schools, colleges and universities in addition to other agencies such as the DWP to provide services for individuals from the age of 14 and above, all of which are delivered in partnership though our stakeholders.  Our remit includes careers inspiration activities incorporating the engagement of the education sector and delivery of careers guidance and work experience, through to the management of apprenticeship training and support for apprenticeship trailblazer standards development across our stakeholders.

With a common shared goal across all stakeholders – to adopt a “grow our own” culture within the county, the Lincolnshire Talent Academy provides the foundation for our collaborative approach to the engagement, recruitment and development of talent within the Health and Care community.

The Retail Data Partnership Ltd was established in 1997 to develop our ShopMate EpoS system. The name of the business says a lot about us. We are firmly committed to serving the independent retail sector. We believe that if retailers are to manage their businesses effectively in these days of tough competition, they need up to date and accurate data about their sales, profits, stock etc. 
Partnership is a crucial part of our business. In order to make the most of our approach to EpoS systems, we have built strong relationships and partnerships with wholesalers and retailers. We need the wholesalers to give us price files so that we can provide them to the retailers. We need the retailers to work with us to give us feedback on how to improve our EpoS systems and services.

We employ 61 people in a variety of roles like Customer Service, Customer Support, Marketing, and Software Development to name but a few. It is just as important to us that a new employee’s personality fits with the team they will be working in as to whether they can do the job required. At the moment we are recruiting for an installer based in Lanarkshire and our Head of Operations has traveled to Glasgow to interview.

Our values really do say a lot about the company:

• Put customers first
  
• Listen to our customers
  
• Work with purpose and integrity
  
• Support our colleagues
  
• Stand by our word
  
• Provide solutions that add value
  

We would like our employees to live, whilst at work, by these values and the values are embedded into our culture. Whilst we may not pay top dollar we believe we offer something unique. The company and employees work in partnership to make a really good environment to work in with a give and take attitude.

We are always looking at ways of improving our offering to the retail sector by either improving our products & services or by partnering with other providers such as Barclaycard, Worldpay, Netpay, ePay etc.
