To streamline the hiring process and ensure a smooth start in your new role, we encourage you to complete our Registration Pack. This includes proof of identity, right to work, qualifications, reference details, and any relevant certifications or licenses. Although not mandatory at this stage, it will allow us to advise clients that you are fully compliant upon submission.

As part of our comprehensive onboarding process, we conduct a Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check for all candidates who have secured a position through Business Smart Solutions. This is an essential step to ensure the safety and security of the workplace and to maintain the high standards expected in the public sector. A DBS check helps employers make informed decisions by providing relevant information about a candidate's criminal history. Please be aware that for certain roles, an enhanced DBS check may be required.
Rest assured, our dedicated compliance team will guide you through the entire process, providing clear instructions on how to complete the DBS check application and any additional steps that may be necessary. By completing a DBS check, you are contributing to a safer working environment and demonstrating your commitment to integrity and professionalism in your field.
