Our Range Of Training Methods And Frequent Contact Ensures Success
Our management training for recruiters is built on a tried and tested training platform. Your managers will be supported through a powerful blend of one-to-one coaching sessions, research, assignments, e-learning including Franklin Covey modules and on-the-job training. The Juice Team Leader Apprenticeship will dovetail into your existing staff development programme to optimise the learning experiences.
Recruitment Juice Management Training Gives You More Bang For Your Buck!
The programme includes the achievement of The Level 3 Team Leader / Supervisor Standard. Successful completion of the standard entitles your staff member to Associate Membership of The Chartered Management Institute (CMI) or Institute of Leadership and Management (ILM) – subject to the application process and relevant fees.
The Apprenticeship Standard for Team Leaders and Managers replaces the old apprenticeship framework for team leaders. It has been designed by employers, for employers. If you are a levy payer, the course is fully funded under the government’s arrangements for the apprenticeship levy. If your company does not have a levy fund, then the government still pays 95% of the cost and you pay 5% – this equates to you paying £16 per month per learner and the government pays the rest.
Juice apprentices will receive complimentary subscription to the Juice online learning platform for the duration of their apprenticeship. This enables them to have access to the world’s most comprehensive and engaging online learning courses developed specifically for recruiters. The normal cost for this would be in the region of £1,000 per person, but there is no extra charge for Juice apprentices.
The Juice apprenticeship programme offers the standard in the full context of the recruitment industry, as opposed to a generic management approach. We are ready to enrol your apprentices now. Together, we can develop the next generation of great team leaders in your organisation. Please read our fact sheet for more information and contact us for an initial discussion

Apprenticeship Standard for Team Leader / Manager – Frequently Asked Questions
What job roles are suitable for this standard?
The Team Leader Apprenticeship, is applicable to team leaders and first line managers in all sectors and all sizes of recruitment organisation. This includes individuals who are at the start of their career in leadership and management provided they have at least one direct report.
Who is eligible to join the programme?
The programme has certain eligibility criteria, as required by the government. The rules are quite extensive but, in short, people can apply if they’ve had the right to work in the UK for the past three years, work at least 30 hours per week, and do not already hold management qualifications higher than level 3. Our advisors will discuss this with you in more detail to ensure the entry rules are fully understood and complied with.
Can our existing staff join the programme?
Yes, the programme is appropriate for those already in management roles who may already have developed practical experience but who wish to develop their theoretical understanding of management skills. There is a general expectation that anyone joining the programme will benefit from significant development, so it is not suitable for very experienced managers.
Is the apprenticeship useful for new members of staff?
This depends on their job roles. As previously mentioned, they must be in a Team Leader role with at least one direct report. The apprenticeship standard should fit the job role and, secondly, the apprentice should benefit from significant up-skilling while on the programme.
What level of apprenticeship is this?
This apprenticeship standard has been set at level 3.
How much does the apprenticeship cost and how do we pay Juice?
The government has set a funding cap of £5,000 for the Team Leader Apprenticeship. Juice will work with you to set up your Apprenticeship Service account, so that your levy funds are transferred to us over the course of the apprenticeship (in accordance with the levy funding rules). This is an automated process that involves a series of checks and balances undertaken by the Education and Skills Funding Agency. If you do not have a levy fund, then the government still pays 95% of the cost and you pay 5% – this equates to you paying £16 per month per learner and the government pays the rest.
Are there any entry criteria?
Apprentices must either hold GCSE Grade C or above in English and Maths before they can join the Apprenticeship.
What e-learning will our apprentices use?
Your apprentices will benefit from our established range of exceptional video courses on leadership and management. Subjects include motivation, change, communication, performance management, hiring talent, people, coaching and much more. These videos offer a fresh, new, innovative and easy-to-use learning platform that are, above all, fun and engaging.
How are our managers assessed?
Our mentors will coach your managers to ensure they are prepared well for the End Point Assessment and achievement of the full Team Leader Standard. Monthly objectives are set for apprentices followed by assessment sessions with mentors carried out remotely via Zoom or MS Teams.
Do we have to pay separately for End Point Assessment
No, it’s all part of the funding arrangements we will have between us. Juice will recommend an approved End Point Assessment organisation to support your apprentices and we will negotiate a price for their services. Juice will formally contract with the End Point Assessment organisation and we will be responsible for paying them from the levy funds we receive.
How long does the programme last?
Typically, managers will be on programme for 15 to 18 months. A lot depends on their personal circumstances and the duration can be adjusted, to some degree to ensure your apprentices’ and your organisation’s needs are fully met.
Are there different pass marks to the apprenticeship?
Yes, your managers can secure a pass or distinction. Juice aims to support all learners to have the opportunity of passing with distinction, which is a clear recognition that they are someone who regularly goes beyond the normal expectations of the job and has the potential to develop and improve quickly.
How do you make sure the apprenticeship is delivered to a very high standard?
Our apprenticeship programme is frequently checked for its impact and effectiveness. We use a range of quality assurance tools to identify our strengths and areas for improvement. These tools include observations of our team working with your apprentices, feedback from your apprentices and their managers, and analysis of their progress and other data. We stay up to date with best practice through our membership of the Association of Employment and Learning providers (AELP), by networking with other professional training providers, and by researching relevant information such as Ofsted reports on apprenticeships. Our work is externally checked by our awarding organisations, the Education and Skills Funding Agency, and Ofsted.
What if we have a complaint?
Please find our complaints policy here
How do our apprentices become members of a professional body?
Both the CMI and TILM were part of the Trailblazer group that developed the apprenticeship standard. A successful manager has the option of becoming an Associate Member of either of these organisations.
Which employers designed the Apprenticeship Standard for Team Leaders?
A group of employers came together to design the new apprenticeship standard.
They were known as Trailblazer group. They came from a diverse range of backgrounds and included, for example, HMRC, Sainsbury, Virgin Media, Santander, Serco, Barchester Healthcare and many others.
How do we get started?
The first step is to have an informal discussion with us to explore how the Apprenticeship Standard for Team Leader can support you and your staff. There are some administrative steps to work through before any apprentices can start. These include making sure that your Apprenticeship Service account is properly set up, that there is a contract in place (a requirement of the Education and Skills Funding Agency), and that apprenticeship agreements and commitment statements are in place. We will explain all of this and steer you through the process.
