Thank you for your interest in working for MidKent College.



MidKent College recognises that its staff are by far its most valuable asset and seeks to recruit the best candidates in an efficient and professional manner.

Forms & Documents 

In accordance with our comprehensive Equal Opportunities Policy and Codes of Practice, a detailed Person Specification and Job Description are drawn up for each vacancy. All candidates are considered strictly on merit, against the criteria outlined in these documents. You can download a full Job Description and Person Specification by following the link to the relevant vacancy in our ‘Current vacancies’ list.

The College’s Application for Employment form is available to download here or at the bottom of this page. Alternatively, you can telephone the Human Resources department on 01634 383102 (24 hr recruitment answer phone), stating clearly the relevant job role and reference number along with your name and address. You can also email for details, sending the job reference number and your address to: job.applications@midkent.ac.uk 

To keep a check on our practices and ensure that we are not inadvertently discriminating in any way, a small amount of monitoring is done via an Equal Opportunities Monitoring Form. The information on this form is used to provide statistical data to ensure that the College complies with its Equal Opportunities Policy and Racial Equality Policy. We particularly welcome applications from black and minority ethnic communities and people with disabilities, who are currently underrepresented in the service. Alternative forms of application will be accepted from people with disabilities.
