You will not love this role if you.
Need a slow pace to feel comfortable - we move fast and we prioritise action even when the path isnt perfectly clear

Prefer maintaining the status quo - we want to challenge assumptions and push for better ways of working
Prefer a highly structured environment with established processes and clearly defined boundaries - were still building and sometimes that means creating the path as we go
Struggle with ambiguity or expect prescriptive direction - youll get support and context but youll need to figure things out and take ownership
Wait for others to step up or to be told what to do - We are a high-performance and high-reward work place and are looking for people who are proactive
Not sure if you meet 100% of the requirements
Thats okay - we know that not everyone follows a linear career path and we value diverse perspectives and growth mindsets.
