Brentford FC recognises the value of a diverse workforce and welcomes applications from individuals with a range of backgrounds. A criminal record will not necessarily prohibit an applicant from employment. This will depend on the nature of the role and the circumstances of any offences. However, we remind individuals that it is a criminal offence for a person barred from engaging in regulated activity to apply for a role that involves such activity.

Please note that where appropriate for the role, you will be required to complete additional background checks such as Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) checks and police checks for any time you have lived or worked outside of the UK in the last 10 years. You can find out more about this at https://www.gov.uk/dbs-check-applicant-criminal-record

Please also note that a CV application will not be sufficient. Applications will not be considered where the application form has not been completed in full.

If the role you are applying for involves regulated activity and you have been shortlisted for a first stage interview, you will be asked to fill out a Declaration of Offences Form.
