Sustainable recruitment
Although staff numbers are currently below the level envisaged originally in the New Operating Model, due to budget pressures, we are managing vacancies carefully to ensure we recruit to meet the demand pressures across Forensic Services rather than on a straightforward vacancy replacement basis.
We are also seeking to recruit sustainably – so Forensic Services consider the impact all recruitment decisions will have on future budget years - not just the current financial settlement for 2024-25.
