Cookie Policy

This policy explains what cookies are, how we use them on our website, and how you can control your cookie preferences.

Last updated: January 2026

1. What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer, tablet, or mobile device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, to improve the user experience, and to provide information to the owners of the site.

Cookies can be "persistent" or "session" cookies. Persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period of time or until you delete them manually. Session cookies are temporary and are deleted automatically when you close your browser.

Cookies may be set by the website you are visiting ("first-party cookies") or by third-party services that the website uses, such as analytics or advertising platforms ("third-party cookies").

2. Types of Cookies We Use

We categorise the cookies on our website into the following four types:

Essential Cookies

These cookies are strictly necessary for the website to function. They enable core features such as security, session management, and accessibility. The website cannot operate properly without these cookies, and they cannot be disabled.

Analytical Cookies

These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website by collecting and reporting information anonymously. We use Google Analytics to analyse traffic patterns, page views, and user journeys so we can improve our content and user experience.

Functional Cookies

These cookies enable enhanced functionality and personalisation, such as remembering your search preferences, recently viewed jobs, and display settings. If you do not allow these cookies, some or all of these features may not function properly.

Marketing Cookies

These cookies are set by our advertising partners to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant advertisements on other websites. They work by uniquely identifying your browser and device. If you do not allow these cookies, you will still see advertisements but they will be less relevant to you.

4. Managing Your Cookie Preferences

When you first visit our website, you will be presented with a cookie consent banner that allows you to accept or decline non-essential cookies. You can change your preferences at any time by clicking the "Cookie Settings" link in the footer of our website.

Please note that essential cookies cannot be disabled as they are necessary for the website to function. Disabling analytical, functional, or marketing cookies may affect your browsing experience and limit certain features.

You can also manage cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to view, delete, and block cookies from websites. Please be aware that if you block all cookies (including essential ones), some parts of our website may not work correctly.

6. Third-Party Cookies

  • Google Analytics: we use Google Analytics to understand how our website is used. Google may transfer data to servers outside the UK/EEA. For more information, visit Google's Privacy Policy. You can opt out of Google Analytics by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

7. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies we use, changes in technology, or changes in applicable law. Any updates will be posted on this page with a revised "Last updated" date. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
