You must hold an appropriate, in-date CSCS card for your role/grade, supported by a relevant recognised qualification (e.g. NVQ, HNC/HND or degree, or equivalent) as evidence of competence.

Be willing and able to undergo DBS, BPSS and/or other client-led security vetting or clearance checks, which may be required at any point depending on project, site or client requirements

Be willing to disclose, and openly discuss at interview, any previous convictions, cautions or other matters that could affect the outcome of a vetting or clearance application

Please note that failure to meet, or subsequently maintain, the security vetting requirements of a project may affect your ability to be deployed to certain sites or contracts.
