, we want to hear from you.
We are working hard to try to level the playing field wherever we can. We know from research that men are happy to apply for positions where they fit just 60% of the requirements, whereas women and underrepresented groups often will not apply unless they feel they are a super close match. If you don't think you meet all the requirements that you see above, we encourage you to apply and tell us what we can do to give you your best shot, if you want. Just so you know, certain positions will be subject to a satisfactory DBS check.
