Recruitment timeline 

Deadline for applications: Thursday 2 May 2024, midday.

All applicants contacted by: Wednesday 8 May 2024.

Interviews: Tuesday 14 May and Wednesday 15 May 2024. There may also be a second round of interviews, date to be confirmed.

Suggested start date: June/July 2024.

We recognise how much time and effort goes into crafting and submitting an application, so we’ll review each with the same care and attention. We do this by looking in detail at the application with reference to our essential and desirable qualities mentioned in the person specification above.

If the interview dates don’t suit you, please tell us in your application.

If you’re selected for an interview, we’ll send you the interview questions in advance. This is usually a couple of hours before the interview itself (this is so people don’t over prepare – it’s not an exam and the questions don’t require research or have ‘right’ or ‘wrong’ answers). If, for access, you would like them earlier than this, just let us know.

We'll let you know if our timelines change, and you’ll hear from us no matter what the outcome of your application.

If your application doesn’t result in an interview, we'll let you know but sadly we can’t offer feedback if we’ve received over 30 applications for a role as we just don’t have the staff capacity.

We'll contact all interview candidates with the outcome of the interview.
