A guide to our recruitment process

Your application

You can view our current vacancies here, where you can search by role and location, or simply browse the full list of vacancies. Click on the role you’re interested in to see the full advert, then click ‘apply’ to complete our online application.

Shortlisting

We shortlist as we receive applications and we’ll contact you as soon as we are able to. Once the application window has closed, we’ll review all applications and shortlist potential candidates. For some roles, we will give you a call to chat through your application before inviting you to interview. 

Selection process

We use a wide range of selection tools which are dependent on the role you apply for. This could involve an interview, presentation or some other relevant activity. We will let you know with plenty of time so you are able to prepare.

Making an offer

If we’re a good fit for each other, we’ll give you a call to make you an offer. All offers are conditional subject to references and DBS checks, so we won’t be able to give you a start date right away. But we can kick off the onboarding process to start bringing you into the team. 

Onboarding

During onboarding, we’ll put you in touch with a member of the People & Culture Team and run through all the necessary checks like DBS and referencing. You’ll have someone to call if you have any questions along the way. You can help speed up the onboarding process by making sure your references are in place.

Top tips to help your application go smoothly
  • Get your references in place, speak to them in advance so they know our request will be coming. 
  • Let us know of any issues that might pop up on your DBS certificate, however minor they may seem. Even simple things may show up, but if we know to expect it, that shouldn’t slow things down. 
  • Have you lived or worked abroad for 3+ months in the last 5 years? If so, you’ll need to provide a Good Code of Conduct. You can apply for one of these from the embassy of the country you were resident in. 

Give the gift of your time and be part of an inspiring community of local volunteers making change together – not to mention picking up new skills, experience, and friends along the way!
