The 4PS Journey
Welcome to onboarding! We're thrilled to have you on the 4PS journey, starting with an intensive programme to ensure the smoothest possible start!
Why 'boarding' is so important
A great start makes all the difference. At 4PS, we believe onboarding is about more than learning processes and systems. It's about feeling welcome, building relationships and gaining the confidence to make an impact from day one.
That's why we invest in an onboarding experience designed to help you settle in quickly and successfully. You'll receive a warm welcome, get introduced to your new colleagues and learn how we work as a team. Through a mix of training methods, practical guidance and support from experienced colleagues, we'll help you get up to speed with the organisation and your role.
We'll ensure you have the right tools to do your job effectively and create opportunities for you to connect with your colleagues from the start. The result? A smoother transition, a stronger sense of belonging and a solid foundation for your future at 4PS
How do we prepare you for 'landing'?
PreBoarding
When you start your journey with 4PS, we want to give you chance to have time to learn about your new team and company, not reading and understanding policies and documentation, so ahead of time, we will work with you to make sure all relevant paperwork is completed, and if you have questions, we’ll be happy to answer these. We’ll also assign you a buddy – an informal support system for you to rely on as you get acclimated within the company.
First day
The first day is always exciting – and sometimes a little intimidating! However, don’t worry; we will ensure you feel prepared. Ahead of your first day, we’ll email you your schedule so you will know what to anticipate in advance. In general, you can expect a day of introductions – to both people and processes!
Personal Mentor
Practice makes perfect! With the help of a personal mentor and plenty of 1 on 1 training, you’ll find that it is possible to learn a lot quickly. Your mentor will already be aware of your job description and best practices, and common mistakes within both the industry and the organisation, so you can have confidence that you will be up to speed in no time at all.
Training on the job
Whilst we offer lots of training opportunities, we believe that there is nothing better than learning on the job. You will often do this together with your personal mentor or other direct colleagues, and this will help you to learn all the processes and procedures of your role as quickly and efficiently as possible.
E-Learnings
Every individual has their own way and speed of learning, which is why we offer many of our training opportunities via E-learning, webinar, instruction video or online course. This means that you can decide for yourself how quickly you work through and absorb the study materials.
4PS Academy
Your personal development at 4PS is a continuous process. With our Academy, it is possible to work on developing certain skills, allowing you to create your own growth path.
What does your (on) boarding pass look like?
Onboarding at 4PS focuses on 3 key areas.
Organisational onboarding: How we work at 4PS and how we treat each other. We, therefore, start with a small tour around the office so that you can meet some of your colleagues and give you an introduction to the mission and vision of the organisation.
Technical onboarding: Which tools do we believe are necessary for you to successfully execute job-specific activities? New colleagues will often receive this information via E-learning or training on the job from their personal mentor.
Social onboarding: In the best sense of the word, this focuses on how a new colleague becomes part of the 4PS family. Exercise challenges, team lunches and other activities as part of our 4PS Life programme are some good examples of how we bring the team together regularly.
