A Trade Background Preferred But Not Essential
Requirements for an enhanced DBS and reference checking will be undertaken in line with government regulations and safer recruitment best practices. Whilst we endeavour to keep the recruitment process as short as possible, due to the nature of these important checks, it may extend the processing time. All young people are equally entitled to have their needs met in a fair and balanced way.
We will conduct online searches of shortlisted candidates. This check will be part of a safeguarding check, and the search will purely be based on whether an individual is suitable to work with children. As care must be taken to avoid unconscious bias and any risk of discrimination, a person who is not on the appointment panel will conduct the search and will only share information if and when findings are relevant and of concern.
Employees are responsible for promoting equal opportunities for all and for challenging any behaviour or practice which discriminates against any young person or colleague on the grounds of race, religion, disability, age, gender, sexual orientation or any other perceived difference.
