If you are successful in being offered a role, we'll be in regular contact before your first day to answer any questions that you have and provide you with all the information you'll need.

Everyone who works for the Household will be security cleared. Vetting information is not required when you first apply. However, if you’re successfully offered a position, you’ll be asked for additional information and to complete a security questionnaire.

This is nothing to be concerned about. We will contact your professional, and sometimes personal, referees. We'll also undertake background checks in order to process your security clearance.

This usually takes about four to six weeks, but can take longer according to the individual case. During the vetting process, much of the work goes on behind the scenes, but we'll endeavour to keep you informed during that time.
