In the meantime, you are notified of the following terms and conditions that will apply to the provision of services by the Deanery in connection with the recruitment of junior doctors to training programmes.

  1. The services provided include a work-finding service for which the Act prohibits the Deanery from charging a fee.
  2. The services provided by the Deanery will be provided without any charge to either junior doctors or the NHS employers that engage them.
  3. If it is determined that the Act applies to the Deanery, the Deanery will operate as an employment agency in providing the services.
  4. The Deanery is authorised to act for NHS employers that are offering training posts as part of the junior doctor training programme and is not authorised to enter into contracts with junior doctors on behalf of those employers.

By proceeding with making an application you are deemed to accept these terms and conditions.
