All too often, people don’t apply for a new position simply because they don’t meet every single criterion in the job description. Research shows that women and other underrepresented groups tend to hesitate if they don’t meet 100% of the criteria, whereas men apply when they meet about 60%.

If this role sparks your interest, even if you don’t tick every box, we encourage you to apply.
