Onboarding and Training Manager (BlueJay)
Are you passionate about creating great first experiences and helping users build confidence in new systems? Do you enjoy leading teams, designing engaging training, and working closely with customers to drive successful adoption? If so, this could be the perfect opportunity for you.
As part of a newly created Operations and Logistics team within BlueJay (BlueJay Secure Collaboration platform), we have an opportunity for an Onboarding and Training Manager.
As our Onboarding and Training Manager, you’ll play a key role in ensuring users are successfully onboarded onto the platform and equipped with the skills they need to get the most from it.
Working across Sopra Steria Ltd (SSL) and with Industry Partners, you’ll lead onboarding activity, shape training approaches, and champion continuous improvement in user experience.
Our team is based in Farnborough, with occasional travel to other sites as required.

What you'll be doing:
- Ensure the timely and efficient onboarding of approved users onto the platform across the UK and overseas.
- Lead and deliver onboarding and training activities, managing scope, schedule, risks, and quality to achieve defined outcomes.
- Manage and develop a team of onboarders and trainers, and support Industry Partner teams through train-the-trainer sessions and coaching.
- Develop and maintain onboarding materials and guidance, ensuring they support different learning styles including self-paced and self-service options.
- Engage effectively with customers and stakeholders to ensure consistent, high-quality onboarding experiences and manage expectations.
- Monitor performance, gather feedback and drive continuous improvement across onboarding and training services.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
