How We Drive Diversity & Inclusion
We’re proud to be an equal opportunities employer, dedicated to creating a workplace where everyone feels welcome, respected, and empowered to thrive. From the moment you apply, we work to make your experience seamless and inclusive. Our job adverts are carefully crafted to be gender-neutral, helping us attract a broad and diverse range of talent. We use Teamtailor, our applicant tracking system, to anonymise applications and support bias-free shortlisting. In line with best practice, we offer reasonable adjustments to candidates attending interviews to ensure a fair and accessible experience for all.

How We Use AI in Candidate Assessment
We use AI thoughtfully, responsibly, and always with a human touch—because we know there’s a real person behind every application.
Our Applicant Tracking System, Teamtailor, helps us manage applications more efficiently by creating easy-to-read CV summaries and highlighting suitability based on pre-set selection criteria. This helps us prioritise applications when volumes are high, but it never replaces human judgment. Every application is personally reviewed by a member of our Talent Acquisition team, because your story deserves to be seen and understood.
During interviews, we use AI-assisted note-taking to help our team stay fully present and focused on you, not their keyboards. This technology ensures key moments and feedback are captured accurately, supporting fair and consistent hiring decisions.
We’re committed to making your experience respectful, transparent, and human every step of the way.
