All successful candidates are required to have an Enhanced DBS check and other pre-employment checks.

Due to the nature of this role, it will be necessary for the appropriate level of criminal record disclosure to be undertaken.

This post will be exempt from the provisions of Section 4 (2) of the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974. Therefore, applicants are not entitled to withhold information about convictions which for other purposes are ‘spent’ under the provision of the Act, and, in the event of the employment being taken up; any failure to disclose such convictions will result in dismissal or disciplinary action.
