Support Worker Application Form

Important information

Thank you for your interest in this position. Upon completion, a member of our team will contact you as soon as possible to discuss your application, our roles and any next steps.

In Scotland we are required to carry out Protection of Vulnerable Groups (PVG) checks for all support workers. In England and Wales Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) checks may be required for some roles at some Higher Education Providers. If a check is required, you will be asked to undergo it before you are offered a support assignment. Clear Links will cover the cost of the check.

Clear Links Support complies fully with the DBS code of practice and undertakes to treat all applicants for positions fairly in line with our policy on the suitability of ex-offenders for employment in relevant positions. Please contact the office on 0114 278 6866 if you would like to discuss enhanced criminal records checks before you apply.
