Security & eligibility

OS conducts pre-employment checks for anyone made an offer of employment, including identity, right to work, employment history and criminal record checks (via Disclosure & Barring Services (DBS).

Some of our roles may require additional security vetting. We will advise candidates during the recruitment process if additional vetting may be required for that specific role.

This role requires the right to work in the UK at the time of application. Unfortunately, OS cannot provide visa sponsorship for this position.

We are happy to consider any reasonable adjustments that people may need during the recruitment process, and you will be asked whether you require any during the application process.

Interview Proces

Shortlisted candidates will be invited to an initial screening call with the Hiring Manager. Candidates progressing from this stage will be asked to complete a SOVA assessment questionnaire before attending a one-hour competency-based interview at our Head Office in Southampton.
