Options for working arrangements and contract

The following options are available:

For temporary contract appointments:

We are offering temporary contracts on a three, six- or nine-month�s basis with the opportunity to extend the contract up to a maximum of two years should you wish to do so and if there is a continuing requirement for your services.

You will be appointed to the second pay point of the Band 3 pay range (one below the pay range maximum) which gives headroom for future progression.

Should it become apparent that your additional service is no longer required a five-week notice period will be given. You will also be expected to give five weeks� notice that you wish to terminate your contract.

As a temporary member of staff, you will receive the full range of Civil Service benefits other than permanent tenure. You will be automatically enrolled for pension although you may opt out. You will be entitled to 25 days leave per annum, pro rata.

You will be required to complete an Occupational Health Review before being appointed.

You will be subject to pre-employment checks including police check and DBS. This is routine and will apply to anyone who has been absent from the service for more than 28 days.
