your application should reflect your skills, experience and motivations authentically
Use AI wisely: it's fine to use AI for ideas or to check spelling and grammar, but don't let it write your answers
Why this matters?
Applications that rely on AI generated content may be withdrawn. By applying, you confirm your responses are based on your own knowledge and achievements.
Tip: think of AI as a helper, not a substitute. We want to understand you - not an AI tool.
As from 1/4/26, the Agenda for Change full-time working week will be reducing from 37 to 36 hours per week. Part time hours will be reduced pro-rata. However, there will be a corresponding increase in the hourly rate so that pay will not be affected
