Next steps

Your input has now changed the scope and focus of the project and a series of workshops are planned this month with our HR, Professional Services and Finance colleagues to work on this. The aim of these sessions is to review the pre-approval process, which includes grading and financial approval, and work together to make this a quicker process. As you may be aware, the pre-approval steps were not part of phase 1 of this project or previously in scope of the recruitment review, so we are now working to improve these elements in phase 2, alongside the introduction of our eRecruitment module. Once the pre-approval process review has been completed and improvements agreed, the next step is the eRecruitment itself, and this will be part of the eRecruitment module in CoreHR.

We will provide another update on this project next month. In the meantime, please do not hesitate to contact Clive Tanton, Project Manager, WCGT with any questions.
