USES OF PERSONAL DATA

FP posts information about employment vacancies on the Website, on behalf of third parties (“Job Specifications”). These Job Specifications are anonymous and can be accessed and read by other users of the Website. We hold no Client data on the Website.

When you apply to a position on our website, your CV comes into our general mailing address, and is available to our Recruiting Team for review. Your CV and therefore your application for a particular position is held both within a Team CV inbox, as well as on the platform from whence it came. As such, the relevant recruiter from our team may call you back both on the day itself that you apply, or up to several months later if another suitable role has become available.

Please note that due to the high number of incoming applications that we currently receive, we are unable to reply to every application that we receive, if however, you have not been contacted about the vacancy within 2 weeks of your application, in most cases you have been unsuccessful on this occasion. Please note that this does not prevent you from applying for similar vacancies in the future, as all our client’s needs are different. In case you would like to follow up on your application, you can always send a request to general@fundspartnership.com stating the date you applied, title of the position, and with your CV attached, and we will double check the status of your application for you.
