We collect Equal Opportunities information as part of the application process and the data is used for the purposes of improving our recruitment techniques so that we are able to reach a diverse range of people in our efforts.
Mercian is an Equal Opportunities employer, which means that we are fair and consistent in the way we recruit candidates and we look at nothing other than a person’s skills, knowledge and experience to do the job!
We want our workforce to be as diverse as the communities we serve and therefore it is important that we try and reach as wide a pool of candidates as possible. We do this via the way we advertise and linking with our local Job Centre Plus to ensure that we are reaching a good cross-section of potential candidates.
