Vacancies
The Council also advertises its job vacancies in the local Job
Centre, in local and national press and on the
North Yorkshire Together*
website.
How to Apply
A full information pack containing details of the post, the
Section which the role is based in and general information on
Ryedale District Council, is available with each advertised
post online at
North Yorkshire
Together* and those advertised on this
website.
You can complete the application form included in
the pack or complete the electronic
Job
Application Form. A hard copy can also be requested
from
hr@ryedale.gov.uk or by telephone on
01653 600666 ext 288. Please state the post you are applying
for and your contact details. All applications must be made
on the Council's hard copy or electronic application
forms; CVs will not be accepted.
Please note: Shortlisting will be based on how closely
candidates match the essential and desirable criteria listed in the
Person Specification for the post.
Positive about Disabled People - We follow
guidance from JobCentre Plus and use the 'two ticks' disability
symbol to highlight that we make five commitments regarding
recruitment, training, retention, consultation and disability
awareness. Further information on these commitments can be
found on the
DirectGov website.
Please note that, in the interests of economy,
acknowledgements of applications will not normally be made.
Shortlisted candidates will be informed of the selection process as
soon as possible. Applicants who have not been shortlisted
will be sent a letter informing them of the outcome.
Our policy requires that all applicants must apply to a
current vacancy; therefore speculative
applications will not be accepted.
"Bureau" work
The Council also maintains a list of people interested in, and
available to work on a temporary, short term basis. These are
normally clerical or administrative vacancies, but can also be for
general skills like cleaning, lifting, driving, labouring etc. Once
you are listed on the Bureau, we will contact you as and when a
suitable placement arises.
Please complete one of our job vacancy application forms and
mark it as 'Bureau' at the top where it asks you which post you are
applying for and then either post it to Human Resources or email it
to
hr@ryedale.gov.uk. Please note we
will only accept applications for the Bureau and not other
speculative applications.
We will then contact you to arrange an informal chat and a
short
IT
test (if
applicable) to determine your skills.
Please be aware that we only have a small operation and
we currently already have a number of people on the Bureau system.
This of course could change at any time but we cannot guarantee any
work if you apply for the Bureau.
For further information please contact 01653 600666 ext
350/370 or
hr@ryedale.gov.uk.
Relocation Policy
The Council has a Relocation Policy which may provide
financial support for employees of the authority moving to the area
in order to commence their employment. A copy of the full Policy is
available from the
HR
section.
Data Protection
Any personal information supplied to the Council by way of a
job application will be used only for its intended purpose, that
is, for recruitment and selection. Successful candidates'
applications will obviously be retained throughout their
employment; all other applicants' information will be destroyed six
months from receipt. Information received via equal
opportunities forms will be used for monitoring purposes only and
also destroyed six months after receipt.
