Job Description and Person Specification

these are the criteria against which you will be assessed. You should pay particular attention to these criteria
and demonstrate how you meet the requirements of the post in your application form and on the selection day.

This is an important part of the form. This is where you demonstrate how you meet the application stage
criteria, using the information supplied in the person specification. You will see that the first items in the person
specification are the criteria we will use to assess applicants at the shortlisting stage. The boxes in this section
are identified by letters A-E (a maximum of 5criteria) and these correspond with the lettered criteria on the
