How HLA Helped Tailormade Moves Find the Right Apprentice in Inverness
Laura Maclean, Property Manager at Tailormade Moves in Inverness, shares her experience working with the Highland Learning Academy (HLA) to recruit and train a Modern Apprentice.
“What we didn’t realise was that along with having tutors to mentor apprentices through their chosen qualification, HLA would be able to recruit on our behalf. The calibre of candidates far exceeded our expectations.”

🤝 Partnering with HLA for Modern Apprenticeship Recruitment
We first discovered HLA when looking into the possibility of taking on a Modern Apprentice in Inverness. Conveniently, HLA are based in the same building as our office, and I had spoken with Louise from their team on a few occasions. When the time came to explore apprenticeships more seriously, I naturally turned to her for advice.
What stood out immediately was how much support HLA offered. We had assumed they would simply provide training support, but to our surprise, HLA handled the entire recruitment process — from advertising the role to shortlisting candidates. The quality of applicants they presented was extremely impressive.
📢 A Smooth and Supportive Process
Louise was incredibly approachable, friendly, and helpful right from the start. She kept us updated every step of the way, making the whole process easy and efficient.
Thanks to HLA’s help, we were able to onboard an apprentice who was the perfect fit for our lettings team. The process exceeded our expectations in every way.
⭐ Highly Recommended for Apprenticeship Support
We would highly recommend the Highland Learning Academy to any employer in the Highlands looking to hire an apprentice or help a team member gain a nationally recognised qualification. Their experience, support, and professionalism make them an ideal apprenticeship partner for businesses in Inverness and beyond.
