If your application is successful, relevant information will be used for the purpose of administrating your subsequent employment and will be retained and used in accordance with our employee privacy policy (a copy of which will be provided when you take up your employment.

We will also contact third parties whose details you have supplied so that we can verify information you have supplied in relation to your previous employment and qualifications.
