As a Disability Confident employer, we’re committed to ensuring our recruitment processes are fully inclusive – what this means to you is if you’re applying for a job with us, you’ll have fair access to support and adjustments throughout your recruitment journey. For this position, we’re regrettably unable to accept applications through the Disability Confident Scheme (DCS) due to the extremely high volumes of applications we receive. However, what we put in place for these positions instead in order to remove barriers is an opportunity for all candidates to complete first stage assessments, in the form of some online exercises, which we can also provide adjustments for on a case by case basis. For more information on the DCS, please visit our inclusive business page on our careers site. 
 

If you require any reasonable adjustments to be made throughout the assessment process you should contact the recruitment team at recruitmentteam@hastingsdirect.com prior to starting any assessments, in order that adjustments can be considered.
