Magic Pot of Jobs

According to Onrec.com, HR software provider Snowdrop has just sold its services to the SENAD group. SENAD is the owner of schools for children with special educational needs. The group has over 1000 employees in 12 different locations in the UK. The six members of SENAD’s human resource team with utilize Snowdrop’s HR software module Evergreen, which handles personnel record management.

SENAD hopes that Snowdrop’s HR software will help to reduce the amount of time it takes to do the administration work it takes to manage a workforce including: adding new members to their staff, keeping track of attendance and safety measures such as Criminal Record Bureau disclosures. Before now, the company stored all of these records manually. This meant that keeping information up-to-date took several staff members a lot of time to do, which is extremely inefficient.

Being involved in education means that SENAD is inspected for a variety of reasons. By using this HR software, the group will likely find it easier to keep up with information relevant to such checks. Snowdrop will also help make the production of certain reports, such as training & development, more efficient.

Victoria Finn, who is the Group Human Resources Manager for SENAD, is excited about using Snowdrop’s HR software.

“I’m looking forware to the implementation as it will give the SENAD HR team the time and quality of information to be proactive in many areas, including manpower planning, pay audits, absence monitoring and recruitment profiles,” Finn told Onrec.com. “As we continue to move our service forward, this can only serve to benefit line managers and the Group as a whole.”

Onrec.com says that the main reason SENAD chose Snowdrop’s HR software is that it seamlessly integrates with Sage payroll. Since the group uses this payroll system at all of its 12 locations, it was important to chose software that would not interfere with such.
