You can learn more about them and what it's like to work there by visiting and following them on Glassdoor, Twitter and LinkedIn.
Our client is committed to recruiting with care, safeguarding employees and customers, and as a result we will carry out pre-employment checks. The nature of these checks will vary according to the role applied for and may include details of current/previous employment, unspent criminal convictions, education and proof of relevant qualifications. They will also be asking for references for everyone who is offered employment with them. All employees will be asked for evidence of their right to live and work in the UK - further information is available on the UK Government website.
