We want everyone who works with us to feel included and celebrate their uniqueness. We are committed to promoting equality of opportunity, eliminating unlawful discrimination, harassment and victimisation, and promoting good relations for both employee and for the people of Lincolnshire. We also ensure that organisations we commission, to provide services on our behalf, deliver the same approach.
Fair and transparent recruitment process
We are passionate about giving all our candidates the best experience possible when applying for any of our roles.
We do this by:
