We’re committed to building a respectful, inclusive, and diverse team. Trust is one of our core values; with that comes a commitment to fairness and transparency. We want to be open about our EDI efforts.
We wish to recruit people who are passionate about working in a diverse environment and who will support us to ensure that all colleagues are supported and included while working with us.
Research shows that while men are likely to apply when they meet 60% of a job’s requirements, women and individuals from underrepresented groups often apply only when they meet every criterion.
