Filling of posts process

• For everyone whose substantive role is ‘affected by change’ or who has been placed ‘at risk’ there is an agreed process for recruitment.

Function transfer & slotting-in

• Function transfer and slotting-in (stage 2 in the filling of posts guidance)

• Where functions are transferring to the NHS Commissioning Board from sending organisations, individuals engaged in that function will transfer to the NHS Commissioning Board.

• This is done either by slotting-in directly or via competitive slot-in where there is more than one match for a role.

Ring-fenced competition

• Ring-fenced competition (stages 3 and 4 in the filling of posts guidance)

• Where posts have been created in the NHS Commissioning Board that are substantially different to current posts, these posts will be filled through limited ring-fenced competition and then for wider ring-fenced competition if necessary.

Open competition

• Open competition (stage 5 in the filling of posts guidance)

• Posts unfilled through steps 1 and 2 will be made available for open competition if necessary.
