Further Personal Details

In line with the Exception Order to the Rehabilitation Act, for all roles which involve regulated activity and an Enhanced DBS check, applicants are required to declare both spent and unspent convictions. If the role requires a Basic DBS check applicants are required to declare unspent convictions. The Applicant pack will detail which DBS check is required for each role. Please see our Recruitment and Selection Policy.

Do you have any convictions? (Please note that a satisfactory Disclosure and Barring Scheme check is an essential requirement for all roles) *

We may on occasion consider internal applicants on a secondment basis for fixed term roles at The Scouts. This is where we appoint you for a fixed term role and keep your substantive post open for you to return to when your secondment is finished. We may have to back fill your substantive post on a fixed term basis until you return and this may leave teams short staffed, either for a short time while we recruit, or for a long time should we not recruit someone to back fill the role. Given this,

Have you obtained agreement from your current line manager to temporarily leave your substantive role for a secondment role at The Scouts? (If no, the HR team will contact your current manager to obtain their agreement should you be short listed for interview. If your manager is not in agreement, the HR team will contact you to clarify if you wish to permanently leave your current role and be considered for this role, or withdraw your application).
