Qualifications & Requirements

Mitie is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all employees to share this commitment. The successful candidate will be subject to an enhanced DBS check and satisfactory references. If you are working in regulated activity please note that you are subject to the following:

• It is a criminal offence for people who are barred from working regulated activity to apply for roles that require them to work unsupervised with that particular group (i.e. vulnerable adults, children or both).
• This post is exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 and Mitie is therefore permitted to ask job applicants to declare all convictions and cautions (including those which are “spent” unless they are “protected” under the DBS filtering rules) in order to assess their suitability to work with children or vulnerable adults.

When you join us, we’ll give you a link to our flexible benefits platform, Choices. This gives you the chance to customise your benefits to best suit your lifestyle. You can choose from dental insurance, dining cards, coffee clubs, buying technology products at an affordable cost and much more!

We give you access to high street discounts from thousands of well‑known retailers, gyms and more through our MiDeals platform. And we have a cycle‑to‑work scheme.
