The university expects all applicants to apply online where possible. However, if you do not have access to the internet, please see below for how to request an alternative.

The online application process helps to ensure that all applicants provide information in the same format, enabling the selection panel to easily and consistently compare the applications that they receive.

You should note that you can only apply for one job at a time. You will need to complete and submit any partially completed application before starting an application for another role.

Online application

The following advice may help you complete your application successfully:

• Ensure you read the relevant job description and person specification before completing your application online.
• Have your own information to hand (e.g. employment history, qualifications and dates). This also applies to internal candidates.
• For academic roles, a CV and other additional documents may be submitted; we do not accept CVs for professional support roles unless specified in the advert.
• Applicants are shortlisted on the extent to which they meet the selection criteria on the job description and person specification. Therefore, do note that the most important section of your application is the section entitled ‘Supporting Statements’ where you need to demonstrate how your qualifications, experience and training meet the criteria of the post for which you are applying. Remember to include evidence and examples and you may also include voluntary work, if applicable.

• Do note that the system makes your application anonymous so that the panel members cannot see any of your personal details such as your name or address, and any equalities data such as your gender. This is to ensure that shortlisting is as fair as possible. However if you upload a CV or publications list which includes any of these details then they will be visible to the panel. If you wish your application to be fully anonymous then please remove details such as your title, name and address from your uploaded documents.
• The application process can be completed in stages and you can login/logout at any time. The screens automatically save as you enter your information and it is simple to move backwards and forwards within the online process at any time prior to submission. Help is available at each stage to guide you through the process.
• Before final submission, you can preview your application and can choose to refine or submit the final application. Once submitted, be aware that you will not be able to amend your application again and so it is important to have checked it carefully before you submit it.

All applicants are asked whether they have any unspent (current) convictions in line with the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act as part of the recruitment process.

All positions that require a DBS check are clearly identified as such in both the advertisement and within the person specification/post details.
