Please note that the posted salary range for this role may vary based on qualifications, prior experience, or seniority. We are always looking for talented people to join our network, and research shows that while men apply to jobs when they meet an average of 60% of the criteria, women and other marginalized folks tend to only apply when they check every box. So if you think you have what it takes but don’t necessarily meet every single point on the job description, or if your desired compensation isn’t reflected in this posting, please still get in touch. We’d love to have a chat and see if you could be a great fit.
