Next Steps
If you are interested in seeking a placement with us, the process is as follows:
Email the Director at: director@concerncymru.org.uk He will then arrange a TEAMS meeting with you to discuss your requirements and to share about the work of Concern Cymru. He will also answer any questions that you may have.
If you are then happy to proceed, he will email you the application pack which includes: An application form for yourself, along with the confidentiality bond and Basis of Faith from the Evangelical Alliance for you to sign. He will also include 2 reference forms and one must be a Church leader and the other from someone of your choice.
Once all these are emailed back to him, the Director will contact you to arrange an informal TEAMS interview with himself and a supervisor from our service. The interview lasts between 30 mins to an hour.
