Summary
EOC Dispatchers undertake a three week in-house training course which includes classroom training with assessments, which you will need to pass for your employment to continue. After the initial training period, you will then be mentored by an experienced EOC Dispatcher for approximately 8-10 weeks whereby you would have undergone written and observational assessments to support your development before being signed off as a competent EOC Dispatcher. Please see attached Job Description for details. If you are successful at the shortlisting stage, you will be invited to complete an online assessment. If you pass the online assessment, you will be invited to attend a Recruitment Day at our Wakefield Headquarters on 16th August 2025. The Recruitment Day will include a further assessment. If you are successful in the further assessment, you will be offered an interview on the same day. Please note: If you are unable to attend on 16th August, you will need to wait and apply for the next vacancy, as no alternative dates are available. EOC training courses are from September 2025 onward and will require 100% attendance. Previous applicants who have been unsuccessful at interview (for 999 Emergency Call Handler or Dispatcher) may not re apply within 3 months of the interview date. Previous applicants who have been unsuccessful in the training course for Dispatch/EOC within the last 6 months need not apply.
