We are affiliated to a fast-track agency who charge £55 to recieve an enhanced DBS.

Due to current GDPR legislation, we are not able to hold data for more than two years if we have not engaged in meaningful contact with you. Therefore, if it has been a while since you were last placed in a position, or in contact with us, you will have to update your documents and information. This also ensures we are fully up to date with your most recent skills and work history to achieve the best placement reflective of your most recent experience!

Imperial is an introduction agency only and all candidates placed in positions are paid directly by the client.

This will be at the employer’s sole discretion. Some employers will contribute but you should budget to move at your own expense in case moving costs aren’t offered.

Most Nannies and Governesses will prepare meals and eat with their charges except on their day(s) off.  When off duty, you can either eat when you are out and about or at the family home.

You can be rest assured that all clients who recruit through Imperial will provide written terms of employment set out in the form of a contract.
