The programme leverages Zitko’s expertise to attract and select candidates. As part of the process, specialist psychometric testing is to identify outstanding technical and learning potential. Chubb then selects and employs trainees from the pool, with manufacturers and educators contributing around 18-weeks of technical education and certified product training; all tailored to Chubb’s needs.
The Zitko Talent team administers the entire programme on behalf of Chubb, while supporting/mentoring trainees.
Andrew Collinson, Operations Director for Electronic Security, Chubb UK, said: “We have developed our own entry level engineers in-house before and some of our most successful people began with us this way.
The accelerated development programme takes this to the next level. We believe it will be a significant source of talent; giving us people who will progress with us long-term. The programme has been designed as a gateway for those who may or may not have previous engineering experience.
