DBS Update Service

The Trust expects that all post holders who require an enhanced DBS for their role subscribe to the DBS Update Service. You will be required to enrol for this service for a fee of £13 per year and maintain registration. Trans applicants who require a DBS check and do not want to reveal details of their previous identity can contact the DBS Sensitive Applications Team (0151 676 1452 or email sensitive@dbs.gsi.gov.uk) with their application number once they have completed their DBS application form. The team are then able to prevent any previous identity showing on the DBS Certificate, unless the applicant has a conviction under their previous details in which case this will need to be disclosed.

We are proud to be an equal opportunities employer.  We celebrate diversity and are committed to reducing discrimination and advancing and promoting equality of opportunity in the provision of services and creating an inclusive environment for all employees.  We believe that everyone has the right to be treated with dignity and respect.  We welcome applications from all sections of the community we serve and we particularly encourage applications from BAME, disabled and LGBT people that are under-represented in our workforce.  We encourage all applicants to share their equality information with us.  Flexible working requests will be considered for all roles.
