We are committed to creating a fair and inclusive workplace. As part of our pledge with the Crisis Homelessness Alliance, we offer an automatic interview to applicants who meet the minimum criteria and are currently experiencing or at risk of homelessness. As a Disability Confident employer, we ensure a fair and proportionate number of disabled applicants who meet the minimum criteria are offered an interview. We are also proud members of the Armed Forces Covenant and recognise the valuable contribution of serving personnel, reservists, veterans and military families; accordingly, a guaranteed interview is offered to eligible veterans, serving personnel approaching the end of their service, and their spouses or partners, subject to meeting the minimum criteria and having left the Armed Forces within the last five years.
As this role involves regular work with children and young people, and meets the definition of regulated activity, it is exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974. Under the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 (Exceptions) Order 1975 you must disclose all unprotected unspent and spent cautions and convictions. Further details on what convictions must be declared can be found in the Governments Guidance on the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 and the Exceptions Order 1975.
If you are offered this position, Landau will ask you to complete an enhanced DBS check with a children's barred list check and provide at least 2 references.
It is an offence for an individual who has been barred from working with children to apply for regulated activity. Providing false information is also an offence and could result in the rejection of the applicant, summarily dismissal if selected, and possible referral to the police.
