Our commitment to the Armed Forces Covenant
Going Forward into Employment (GFiE) life chance recruitment scheme uses a streamlined approach to recruit people from a wide range of backgrounds into the Civil Service.
We provide opportunities for people who face possible barriers to gaining employment within the Civil Service including Service Leavers/Veterans and Military Spouses, providing them with experience that can improve their life chances and help make the Civil Service more representative of the country it serves.
We will retain our commitment to working flexibly to overcome barriers. We want to develop our approach to make it easy for Civil Service departments to recruit life chance candidates, so that more opportunities are provided for people who may experience barriers to employment.
This is an amazing opportunity to express your interest in any of the Civil Service vacancies that we offer!
