We hire the best talent and value a diverse, inclusive team. We are dedicated to ensuring our application process is accessible to everyone and are happy to provide helpful adjustments as needed. However, the safety of our guests is our top priority; therefore, all centre‑based employees and some Head Office staff must undergo an Enhanced criminal record check, which we pay for. You will need to provide a 5‑year address history and ID (such as passport or birth certificate). Convictions related to violence, drugs or safeguarding may affect your application, though not all convictions disqualify you.
