Information about recruitment

The request was partially successful.

Nicolaides Hoff

Dear Meteorological Office,

I wish to request information about the recruitment processes from your organisation. In particular, I am interested in the group of roles commonly known as Corporate Services or Professional Services.

As an example, I would request the information on permanent hires in the following areas;
Legal roles
Finance/Accountancy/Purchasing roles
HR roles
Estates/Facilities roles

Please can you provide;
Correspondence between hiring managers and HR about the decision to recruit (and associated correspondence between the two parties during the recruitment process - obviously without any personal information about applicants, shortlists, interviewing or ultimate hiring decisions).
Correspondence between hiring managers and HR about general Succession Planning within the defined areas.
Job evaluation/role profiling for permanent roles advertised within the defined areas.

In the first instance, I would ask for this information on roles advertised publically between 1st December 2017 and 31st March 2018.

Yours faithfully,
Nicolaides Hoff

Dear Sir/Madam,

 

Thank you for your email. 

 

If your enquiry is regarding the following:

 

General Enquiries & Data Requests

We aim to respond to general enquiries and data requests within 2-3
working days, so if your enquiry is of this nature one of our Weather Desk
Advisors will be in touch as soon as possible.

 

IT Enquiries

At present we are not reporting any global issues with our systems.
Therefore, if you are experiencing issues, these may be related to your
specific device and for us to help we will require the following
information.

 

1.     A description of the problem, and process in which it occurs

2.     A screen shot of the problem

3.     A completed technical form, which can be found at
[1]https://www.metoffice.gov.uk/forms/repor...

If you are having trouble accessing our internet based services, for
example our website or General Aviation services, for our technical teams
to help quickly they do require both a screen shot of the error page and
above mentioned Website Technical Fault form. Without this information we
will not be able to proceed quickly in resolving your issue, as this
information is critical in aiding our investigations.

 

Android & iOS Apps

The latest version of our apps are 1.20.0

For our technical teams to help with any app related enquiries, please
ensure you have download and installed the latest version.

Retirement of Windows, Kindle & Fire Phone Apps

On 29 January 2018 the Windows, Kindle and Fire Phone Apps were retired.
These apps have not been supported for over two years and have reached the
end of their technical life cycle.

 

There are currently no plans to develop a new app for these phone users,
however we will continue to monitor user requirements. For users with
these phones we would recommend you save a browser favourite or shortcut
to

[3]https://www.metoffice.gov.uk/mobile which allows access to our
forecasts, National Severe Weather Warning Service, videos and surface
pressure charts.
