**WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR**

Of course, it’s important that we attract the right skill sets, and those with the right experience, but we value character, positivity, and a caring attitude in equal weight.

We want people who show up and roll their sleeves up. Restless spirits who are ready to be part of something bigger, who care, who really care... because when you really care, you’ll go above and beyond. When you really care you don’t just talk about it, you do more.

We are looking for someone with the ability to work at pace, and at times under pressure, while remaining calm, organised, and focused.

We welcome people from all walks of life and celebrate individuality as we know diverse minds, experiences and backgrounds help us to learn and better serve our communities. We employ thousands of people from across our community who really care about what they do. Because that is how we do what we do.

And when it comes to inclusion, we’re making sure we keep up the progress with our wonderful working groups - LGBTQ+, Women in Operations & STEM, Disability and Ethnicity; who help us do just that.

**We do more, because we care.**

**HOW WE’LL REWARD AND CARE FOR YOU IN RETURN**
