This file must contain the following documents:
- A copy of your current CV including references from your previous posts
- Police Check Clearance – We will cover the costs for this
- Training Certificates of courses you have completed over the past few years
- Occupational Health Serology reports – We will cover the costs for obtaining these
If your CV is picked for the post, we will contact you to make sure you are happy. If you wish to proceed we will send you a contract with all the information you need to start working on this post with us.
