Welcome to the recruitment section of our web site

The Commission provides a unique and stimulating working environment within which our employees can flourish.  We value dedication, commitment and self motivation.  Our people are empowered and supported to achieve their goals, both through a supportive management structure and through our powerful IT systems that give access to a wealth of essential reference materials and information.

Our standards are high, so we aim to recruit the best.  We use a comprehensive array of recruitment tools – including psychometrics, work samples and competency-based interviews – and it is not an easy process to get through!  But we are confident that those who are successful will be proud to work for a highly professional and successful organisation.

Our training and development programmes are also impressive.  We call upon people within the Commission to share their expertise and also use external experts to deliver high quality training on relevant topics.  We offer support for external courses and professional qualifications, where relevant, to improve performance.

We are always seeking to improve our effectiveness, both on an organisational and an individual level, so you would be joining an organisation that is not afraid of the need for change.  The last few years have seen some significant changes in the way that we work – and we are always striving to be better!

Our recruitment is primarily for Case Review Managers but we do occasionally recruit for other roles in general administration and support functions, or senior management.

In the pages of this section you will be able to read about the experiences of some of our employees who will tell you, in their own words, what it’s like to work for us.
