I wish to open a new Service request or incident from HR for a new starter,
This SR or incident then needs to open templeted sub activites of build machine, assign phone extension, create AD account etc etc
These sub-tasks can then be assigned to other staff and closed off seperately but all link to the master...
How can I achieve this?

This is, in fact, the entire purpose of the template, to allow you to create complex work items like Service Requests, with all component activities as they are. 
The service request is a linear progression, i.e. only one activity will run at a time, and as soon as it completes, the next activity will start. this behavior is by design. if you have multiple tasks that need to run concurrently, consider using a Parallel
Activity container. the PA container will start, and all activities within the PA container will start, and as soon as all activities inside the PA are completed, then the PA will complete, and the next activity inside the Service Request will start.
Views are not updated unless you click away and back, or manually refresh the view. this might be why you don't see them.
