Personal qualities
The nature of our business suits people with the following qualities:
- respectful of difference and alternative viewpoints; lack of judgement
- positive outlook and resilience: the ability to focus on the solution not the problem, to recover quickly from difficulties and not allow setbacks to affect you long term
- cognitive flexibility and agile thinking: able to cope with high levels of ambiguity and comfortably adapt your thinking and behaviour as plans change – and plans do change
- curiosity, openness and a growth mindset: to seek better ways of working and see challenges as opportunities to learn
- high level of personal organisation: being creative does not mean being chaotic
- low ego: open to feedback and comfortable receiving constructive criticism

Criteria for applying:
- applicants must have the right to work in the UK
