We prioritise Diversity:
Innovation & Collaboration are two important core values at Builderscrack which both cannot be achieved successfully without a diverse and inclusive team. We don't expect you to be an expert in all areas and we are more interested in learning about you as a person, a team member and a leader.
Research shows that while men apply for jobs when they meet an average of 60% of the criteria, women and other minority groups tend to only apply when they check every box. So if you don't tick every single box above, but you think you would be a great fit for the role and the Builderscrack team, we encourage you to apply, we would LOVE to hear from you!
We are a Circle Back Initiative Employer – we commit to respond to every applicant.
