• Risk and Operations Division

During the programme, graduates will undertake and learn tasks such as writing reports and letters, project research, and making recommendations as well as undertake on-site visits.

Requesting reasonable adjustments

The recruitment process at the Commission includes various stages and activities, for example, written submissions and interviews. These are designed to assess whether you meet the requirements of the job or job level. We are committed to supporting candidates who may need an adjustment at any stage of the recruitment process.

To request a reasonable adjustment as part of the recruitment process, please email us and provide the following:

• Details of the position you are applying for,
• The reason you need an adjustment,
• Possible adjustments which could help, and
• Examples of any adjustments you have had previously (if any).

A member of the HR team will contact you to discuss your request and confirm the type of adjustment(s) available.

We can also discuss ongoing adjustments in the workplace if you are successful in your application and before you start work.
