We are a Disability Confident Committed employer. Disabled applicants who meet the essential criteria will be considered for an initial screening interview. When application numbers are high and we are unable to interview everyone who meets the minimum criteria, we will prioritise those who best meet the essential requirements of the role.

We are defining a disability in accordance with the Equality Act 2010, as a person who has a physical or mental impairment, and the impairment has a substantial and long-term adverse effect on their ability to carry out normal day-to-day activities. You will be asked in your Applied application whether this applies to you.

If you have a disability or other access needs and require any support to assist you through the recruitment process, please get in touch.
