For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.It depends. If you are asked if you have a criminal record then failing to declare something that is on your record would enable them to dismiss you straight away if they found out you had lied.
If you aren't asked then while ethically you should say something you would not actually be obliged.
Also after a certain amount of time your caution will be 'spent' and removed from your record you do not generally need to disclose 'spent' cautions or convictions. That is unless you are going for a job that requires enhanced disclosure - security sensitive - working with vulnerable people such as children, people in care or hospitals/nursing homes etc. or concerned in the administration of justice such as working at a prison, police station, court etc. in which case it is always there.
