Work or Volunteer with us
Welcome to our recruitment page!
Our growing team are proud to offer vacancies across our sites in Hampshire and Surrey where you can begin, or continue developing your career as part of our hardworking and dedicated team. All our provisions are currently expanding over time, hence we have frequent new opportunities available.
The Application & Recruitment Process
The first stage of our recruitment process includes watching an important introductory video, followed by an invitation to an informal initial meet and interview, usually via Teams.
For most roles, shortlisted candidates are then invited to spend one or two full trial days on-site. During the trial, candidates will also have a second interview, as long as they have completed and submitted their application form beforehand (you can download the form using the link below).
After the trial days and second interview, we gather feedback—including insights from the young people candidates have worked with—before the panel makes a final decision on whether to offer the role.
If you have any recruitment enquiries or need to send in your application form, please email us at recruit@elysianuk.org
