    Our people

    Land Registry's workforce of around 8,600 people is increasingly diverse while built on a bedrock of long-serving employees. Our long history means we have traditions that unite the organisation while our office structure allows local identities to flourish. Flexible working hours, innovative HR practices and a growing variety of roles make our organisation an attractive prospect for new and existing staff.

    Training and development are top priorities, with a comprehensive IT skills programme, courses such as the Qualification in Land Registration Law and Practice and development schemes such as the Future Leaders programme. External bodies have also recognised our support to staff acquiring specialist qualifications. The Association of Chartered Certified Accountants awarded Land Registry Platinum Approved Employer for Trainee Development status.

    Our organisation-wide health campaigns show we're concerned about much more than getting the work done. And we're always trying to improve communication in all directions, through directors' visits, newsletters, DVDs and the intranet, so that staff understand why decisions are being made.
