About the Role

If you have a keen eye for detail and enjoy working within a small, but busy team, then this is an exciting opportunity for you to join us and play a key role in our shared commitment to safeguard the vulnerable within the Dorset community.

Dorset Police are an essential partner to DBS who have the critical role of conducting criminal background checks on people who have applied for jobs or voluntary work within areas who have contact with some of our most vulnerable. By accessing and reviewing secure Police information and conducting assessments to national standards you will be providing the Disclosure & Barring service and their partners with a summary of relevant information to enable them to make safer recruitment decisions. Whilst this can sometimes mean that you will be viewing potentially disturbing material, in doing so you will be playing a big part in the safeguarding of the most vulnerable people within the Dorset community.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
