- You will deal with clients sensitively and appropriately and uphold our values of dignity, fairness and respect.
- We will look to you to make sure services are provided on a value for money basis.

- 4. Tell us about a time when you demonstrated strong organisational skills with the ability to work on your own initiative and make use of robust information from a variety of sources.**Benefits**:

- Annual Leave - You will receive 25 days annual leave on joining us. This will increase to 30 days after four full years of service.
