Congratulations!

What does a conditional offer mean?

We’d love to hire you right now, we simply need to do a few background checks before we can. We’ll check things like you are who you say you are, your credit score, criminal record and your employment history. 

Please do not hand in your notice to your current employer until you have received a confirmed start date and an unconditional offer from a member of the Lloyds Banking Group Recruitment Team

What are the next steps?

You’ll receive an email shortly directing you to your Workday portal to read and accept your conditional offer. 

Please complete this within 24 hours so that we avoid any delays.

You’ll then go through a vetting process. As a financial institution, we come into contact with sensitive personal data every day.  Because of this, we need to make sure everyone is able to follow regulations and laws on how to manage this data. We will be checking the following:
