Information for recruitment agencies

The Sheffield College requests that recruitment agencies do not forward CVs speculatively or in relation to any of the roles advertised on our website. Should we require any recruitment agencies involvement we intend to work solely via our Master Vendor provider, Protocol.  

The Sheffield College will not: 

  • Recognise submissions of unsolicited or speculative CV applications from recruitment agencies.
  • Be liable for any fee / commission should we employ a candidate that applied to us directly or through an instructed agency that may also have been submitted as an unsolicited or speculative application from an uninstructed recruitment agency

In the event that a recruitment agency submits an unsolicited or speculative CV and then purports to render a claim for commission supported by correspondence and/or documentation containing a disclaimer indicating otherwise, our policy prevails.
