How do I search for a vacancy?
All of the job vacancies at Mersey Care are advertised on our jobs page
You can also sign up for alerts when a particular type of job or work location is advertised - simply follow the instructions below!
Before starting your application, be sure to read the job advert, job description and person specification, so you know the essential and desirable criteria for the role you’re applying for.
On every advert there will be a contact name, email address and/or phone number. Where possible, try and contact the recruiting manager to discuss the role before you apply. This will give you a better understanding of the role and can answer any specific questions you may have.
Set up an account on Trac
Trac is an online application system used by the NHS to help people apply for jobs and keep track of where their application is up to. You will get emails from Trac or trac.jobs rather than Mersey Care so look out for them in your inbox or junk.
To apply for any job with Mersey Care, you need to set up an account on Trac. This can be done on Mersey Care’s website by clicking on the ‘Jobs’ link on our home page.
To set up a Trac account you will need to provide your name, postal address and email address. You will also need to set up a password to access your account in the future. Once you set up an account, you can search and apply for jobs. You can also log back into your account to check where your application is up to at any stage. Make sure you choose a password you can remember so that you can log in and out of your Trac account and keep uptodate with any applications.
Your personal details including your name, address and date of birth are not shared. Trac keeps applications anonymous until you are shortlisted for an interview.
Set up a job alert
Use your Trac account to set up a job alert, which notifies you as soon as certain roles are advertised. In your Trac account, click ‘Jobs-by-email’. You can select types of jobs, geographical locations, the band or salary you are looking for. Job adverts that match the information you have specified will be emailed to you. This can be changed or stopped at any time.
