Disability Confident Scheme

We want to encourage disabled people to apply for jobs. If you are disabled, we want to give you an opportunity to show your skills, talent and abilities at the interview stage.

As part of our Disability Confident accreditation from the Department for Work and Pensions, we will offer interviews to a fair and proportionate number of disabled applicants. This doesn't mean that all disabled people are entitled to an interview. They must meet the minimum criteria the role as defined by the employer.

To be considered for an interview under the Disability Confident scheme you need to:

  • have a physical or mental impairment, or a long-term health condition which has a substantial and long-term (over 12 months) adverse effect on your ability to carry out normal day-to-day activities
  • demonstrate in your application (and any pre-interview assessment stages) that you meet the minimum job criteria as set out in the person specification for the role.

We will do all that we can to support you if you need an adjustment during the recruitment process. Please get in touch with hr.recruitment@churchofengland.org if you need any assistance.
