In full bloom
Here’s a walking talking example of just what they can do… You know that giant pink building on Anzac Highway? It belongs to SA biz, Edible Blooms — the creators of some of Adelaide’s most loved edible bouquet arrangements — who have really made the most of Mas National’s expertise across the years.
“Edible Blooms started to grow quickly, which was so exciting — but it meant we had young team members stepping up to the plate and taking on leadership roles. As great as they were at their jobs, we wanted to make sure that we were setting them up for a successful future within the business and, of course, to make sure they were representing our brand well with every interaction. When Mas National reached out, we set up a meeting straight away!” says Kelly Jamieson, owner of Edible Blooms.
After one phone call, Mas National team member Kylie sat down with Kelly to understand exactly what would help Edible Blooms to keep growing, and which roles needed extra support. Before long, Kylie matched employees Bella and Madison with the perfect traineeship pathways. They each took on the Certificate IV in Leadership and Management.
Now, a few years down the track, Bella and Madison have finished up their traineeships. “The girls are both so important to our team! It’s wonderful to see them flourishing here at Edible Blooms, with the added confidence and experience of a traineeship behind them,” smiles Kelly
