Our approach to people development links target setting, managing performance and career management, with reward, to facilitate the growth of our people and their effectiveness, in meeting the needs of our business.
At Astra Tech the responsibility for developing our people is a shared activity - a partnership that ensures individuals take responsibility for their learning and career management, while the company helps to identify and clarify development needs and opportunities, and supports the learning process.
Our managers have a clear accountability too - to develop and communicate team objectives based on the strategic needs of the company. And to agree individual targets and a development plan with you, so that from your early days you can enjoy professional feedback and coaching on how to develop yourself in support of the business.
The benefits of our approach go much further than just a clear mutual understanding of expectations and aspirations. It offers the opportunity to discuss and review targets and agree development plans on a regular basis - both informally and through appraisal.
And beyond the recognition that comes with success, there are career progression opportunities, such as cross-functional options, as well as possibilities for greater autonomy and involvement.
In summary, we're building a dynamic performance culture - one in which individuals and teams are motivated and rewarded for high levels of contribution. And where you have the freedom and support to reach your potential, wherever your aspirations may lead you.
