Careers at PC Group.

A career with PC Group is a chance to work in a unique industry, engaging with clients and stakeholders across every UK sector. From nurseries to government, television to nuclear energy, our products and services enable organisations to make safer recruitment decisions. The data we provide helps protect them, their people and the communities in which they operate. This underpins the mission all our brands share - to make the working world safer for everyone. To achieve this, we need the best people on our teams.

In our experience, the best doesn’t always mean the most qualified. Background screening isn’t taught in academia, it’s learnt through experience. Drive and the passion to grow are the qualities we look for. We can teach you everything else. If you think you align with our vision and values, there could be a career for you at PC Group.

Employee Benefits

The benefits of joining our team.

Our core benefits can be broken down into balance, freedom and growth. We believe that people achieve their best when they have work/life balance, the autonomy to do their job and the chance to grow, personally and professionally.

As a people-led business, every team member has a chance to shape our employee value proposition. From hybrid work to casual dress, our teams have led many changes to how we work.

Real Balance

We understand that work isn’t your entire life. This is why we offer hybrid working as standard, with options for flexible and remote working available. When your life is balanced you feel and perform your best.

Real Freedom

We believe people perform their best work when they’re free to be themselves and are trusted to do their job. That’s why we support diversity, choosing a casual dress code in the workplace.

Real Growth

Whether it's a course, qualification, or even one-to-one coaching - if it helps you develop , we want to know about it. And as you grow in your career, the benefits grow too! Additional annual leave accrual each year, sabbatical options, private health insurance and more.

We live by our values.

Our company values underpin how we approach everything we do both as a company and as individuals. We believe these values have helped us create a welcoming and nurturing workplace where people can become the best version of themselves.

Team Work

“I can solve this problem in a more effective way by using the strengths and perspectives of the diverse teammates I am surrounded by.”

Respect

“I celebrate the humanity and recognise the worth of others around me. I want to feel comfortable to express my authentic and individual values at work, and I want others to feel the same.”

Integrity

“I choose transparency over opacity every time. I expect transparency over opacity from my peers at all times too.”

Positivity

“I will enjoy the days where the positivity is oozing out of myself and the company. I will strive to take positive learnings from the more difficult days.”

Extra Mile

“I recognise that this business is not about any one person but the collective effort of us all. At times I’ll need to go further to progress the interests of the company ahead of my own.”

Company Culture

Company Culture is a big deal to us.

Our culture is incredibly important to us. Whether you’re in the office everyday or working remotely, we want you to feel included. That’s why we have Together Weeks. Every other month we bring the entire team together from across the UK to collaborate, catch up and socialise.

Yes! We do apprenticeships too.

We’re searching for the best young talent Lancashire has to offer. But we don’t define ‘best’ by academic achievement. Some of our most successful apprentices weren’t exactly what you would call model students! Integrity, enthusiasm and willingness to learn are far more important. We can teach you everything else you need to know.

Apprenticeships are a part of our DNA. We’ve spent the past 20 years helping school leavers build their careers, gain confidence and learn skills that last a lifetime. In return, our apprentices have invested themselves in PC Group, helping build the culture we have today.
