How do I apply?
We regularly recruit for a range of roles at our branches across the UK. You can view all current vacancies using the ‘Job Search’ function on this site.
As part of your application, we’ll ask you to answer some standard questions and to upload your CV – these support the hiring manager in the shortlisting process.
In line with GDPR regulations, all applicant details will be deleted six months after the closing date of the position.
What qualifications/experience do I need?
For many of our roles, no specific experience is required; we understand that often skills are transferrable and that you have more to offer than just previous job titles. For some of our more senior or specialist roles, specific qualifications or experience may be required; this will be outlined in the job description/person specification.
What is the interview process?
Should your application be shortlisted, you’ll be contacted and invited to an interview.
Depending on the role you’ve applied for, interviews may be conducted in person at the relevant branch, or via Teams video call. They may be a panel-based interview, meaning more than one person will be interviewing you.
During the interview, we’ll ask questions about your work experience, as well as some scenario or competency-based questions tailored to the role you have applied for.
What do I need to bring to interview?
You may find it helpful to bring a notepad and pen to jot down any notes or questions for your interviewer. Job descriptions are typically included in the role advert, but if you need a copy beforehand to assist with your preparation, please feel free to contact the hiring manager.
Interviews are a two-way process, offering both you and us the opportunity to assess whether the role is the right fit. We encourage you to ask questions to help determine if Loomis is the right place for you.
Please note, you will need to provide Right to Work documentation. A list of acceptable documents will be shared with you when you are invited to interview.
What pre-employment checks will you carry out?
Due to the nature of our business, all our employees must be vetted to the industry standard BS 7858.
These pre-employment checks include (but are not limited to):
> Financial checks
> Criminal checks
> Employment references
We use an external provider – Vero – to support the vetting process. You will be contacted by Vero once you have received an offer of employment. An email will be sent to you with instructions on next steps.
We unfortunately have no control over the time it takes to complete certain checks, particularly the DBS check; while some are processed within a few days, others can take over a month. The DBS process includes checks by the local police force and the central records office. Once the process is complete, you will receive a certificate - this is yours to keep, although we may need to see it to confirm receipt.
