      Personal Data We Collect

      From You

      Using third party service providers, acting on our behalf, we may collect the following types of information directly from you.

      • Identification and contact details. This includes information such as your name, address, email address, phone number, and other contact information, as well as your gender, date of birth, nationality or nationalities, and national identifiers (for example, national ID, passport, or social security number).
      • Employment history. This includes information about your previous employers and job titles.
      • Background information. This includes information like your academic and professional qualifications, education, details included in your CV or résumé (some of which could include details about memberships or interests that reveal sensitive personal information about you), transcripts, and employment references.
      • Reference information. This includes information about your professional references that you share with us (including their name, contact information, and job title, though it is your responsibility to get your references’ consent to share their personal information with us), information we receive from background checks (when we have them completed for a role), and information provided by other third parties.
      • Previous applications and roles with us. This includes information about any prior applications you may have made for a position with us or any previous employment history with us.
      • Your immigration or visa status. This includes information that would let us know if you are authorized or able to become authorized to work for one of our group companies.
      • Other information you voluntarily provide. This includes information that you may provide throughout the recruitment process, including, for example, through assessment exercises and interviews.

      If you fail to provide personal information requested by us which we consider to be necessary for us to consider your application, we may not be able to move forward with your recruitment process.

      Unless permitted and necessary or required by law, there are certain types of information that we generally try to avoid collecting. For example, information that reveals race or ethnicity; religious, political or philosophical beliefs, or trade union membership; genetic or biometric data; information concerning your health/sex life; or criminal convictions or offenses ("Sensitive Personal Data"). We may collect some Sensitive Personal Data from you for legitimate recruitment and employment-related purposes, including meeting compliance obligations; providing accommodations for disabilities; equal opportunity monitoring; for anti-discrimination purposes; and to satisfy reporting obligations. In some countries and for some roles, we may need to conduct criminal background checks, but only where this is required or permitted by applicable laws. Separately, you may choose to voluntarily disclose Sensitive Personal  Data during the recruitment process. If required by law, we will request your consent if we collect Sensitive Personal Data. In any case, any Sensitive Personal Data will be treated in strictest confidence and used only for the purposes of assessing your eligibility for employment or specific job duties with us.

      We may gather Personal Data about you from third parties, including:

      • Professional references

      • Background checking agencies and other external database holders
      • Recruitment or executive search agencies
      • Publicly available sources, including social media such as LinkedIn or other information available online (as part of this, we may contact any mutual connections that are evident from publicly available information) 


      Automatically 


      We automatically gather personal data from our Site’s “Careers” page.  The Careers page is available for you to visit and search for open positions.  For more details about the personal data we collect through our Sites, please see our Cookie Notice.
