What we offer
Applicants will ideally already be on the DBS Update Service; if this is not the case Nottinghamshire County Council will carry out a DBS (police) check prior to starting. Due to the nature of the vacancies signing up to the update service would greatly assist candidates in ensuring the immediate up take of roles, if not already signed up to the service this can be done within 30 days of the DBS at the candidates own expense.
We hold interview panels for this post every two weeks. Your application will be reviewed as soon as we receive it for consideration at our next panel.
