Requirements
We are seeking candidates who:
* Are natural problem solvers - you want to know why things run the way they do, and develop effective solutions
* Have an analytical approach, typically nurtured by studying STEM-related subjects
* Are keen planners and organisers. If your revision notes were supremely organised - think colour coding and timetabling - then we want to hear from you!
* Have an inquisitive and curious approach. You're not afraid to ask questions when you don't understand
* Genuinely wish to develop professional skills, and seek continuous opportunities to learn
There could be a good fit if you:
* Are interested in a job where you see activities through from start to finish, rather than diving into one specific area for a long time
* Want to work on a variety of projects and tasks. If you want to work in one sector day in, day out, we're not the employer for you
* Would describe yourself as trustworthy. You may work on projects related to national security, so we are looking for individuals who are conscientious and act with integrity
If you like the sound of this work-study opportunity but you're not sure if you'll fit, please apply anyway - you might be just what we're looking for.
