Who we are looking for
We are looking for individuals who are inquisitive with a reflective mindset and an interest in collaborating with members from different cultures and disciplines. Candidates will also ideally be open to seeing things from a beginner perspective and excited by unconventional ways of learning and doing things. Strong synthesis and writing skills, and the ability to organise large volumes of text, will greatly help candidates in the role.
