Recruitment

CCMS has upgraded the online recruitment system which now provides the applicants with the facility to:

Create email alerts for up and coming vacancies

Create a profile

A profile allows applicants to populate their personal details, education and experience for each post they apply for.
Retain copies of application forms for jobs applied for, along with job specific information.

Apply for a job without creating a profile

For each post you apply for you will be provided with a pin number so that you can save for later and access your form at a later stage whilst the job is open.
Before you hit submit you should print a copy of your form as the system will no longer send you a copy
You can access CCMS jobs by clicking onto our website or at https://ccms.getgotjobs.co.uk/home

Enhanced Disclosure check - information for applicants

Applicants must disclose if there is any reason why they cannot work in regulated activity (as defined by AccessNI). For further information on regulated activity please refer to the AccessNI website www.nidirect.gov.uk/accessni.

Please note that as part of the CCMS recruitment process the successful candidate will require an enhanced disclosure check, which at present costs £33 and is met by the candidate. Further details regarding payment of this will be issued with any initial offer of employment. Please be aware that any offer of employment is subject to a satisfactory criminal record check.

Your name, address and contact details, including email address and telephone number;
Details of your qualifications, skills, experience and employment history;
Information about your current level of remuneration;

CCMS may also collect personal data about you from third parties, such as references supplied by former employers. For internal candidates for CCMS jobs, Principals and Vice Principals we will seek information from third parties only once a job offer to you has been made and will inform you that we are doing so. For teachers, we will seek information from third parties once you are short-listed for a position. You will not be informed that we are doing so.

Data will be stored in a range of different places, including on your application record, in HR management systems and on other IT systems (including email).

Why does CCMS process personal data?

We need to process your data to take the necessary steps prior to entering into any contract with you. We may also need to process your data if we agree to enter into a contract with you. We have a legitimate interest in processing your data during a recruitment process to ensure that we make and keep records of this process. These records allow us to manage the process effectively, assess a candidate's suitability for employment and decide whom to offer roles to. We may also, from time to time, need to process data from job applicants to respond to and defend against legal claims.

Who your information may be shared with

In most circumstances, CCMS will not disclose data without your consent.

However, for the purposes of processing your application, we may be required to share your data to meet our legal or public function requirements, with the following:

Department of Education and/or other government departments and agencies;
Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs (HMRC);
Access NI;
Members of the Board of Governors/Principal of the School you are applying for;
Panel members and Independent Assessors/Recruitment Advisers.

What are your rights?

As a data subject, you have a number of rights including access to your data on request, to stop us processing your data on demand, to ask us to delete your data on demand or to change any incorrect or incomplete data we hold on you. If you believe that we have not complied with your rights, you can complain to the Information Commissioner.

How we use information about you

CCMS will not transfer your data outside of the European Economic Area. We will protect your data internally through internal controls and policies to ensure that your data is not lost, accidentally destroyed, misused or disclosed, and is not accessed by employees except in the proper performance of their duties.

How long we keep your personal data

We will keep your data in this regard for a maximum of two years, unless you withdraw your consent during this timescale. Our recruitment processes are not based on automated decision making and you are under no statutory or contractual obligation to provide your data to us. If you elect not to do so, however, we will not be able to process your application properly, if at all.
