Research tells us that applicants (especially those from underrepresented groups) can be put off from applying for a role if they do not meet all the criteria or have been on an extended career‑break. If you think you would be a good match for this role and can demonstrate some transferable experience please apply, regardless of whether you tick every box.
As a business regulated by the FCA we would advise you to familiarise yourself with the conduct regulations and, in particular, consumer duty obligations prior to an interview with SJP.
