We aim to create a welcoming, fair, and supportive interview process. Please let us know if you have any requirements or adjustments, we’re happy to accommodate.

Not sure you meet every requirement?

Research shows that women, disabled people, LGBTQ+ individuals, neurodiverse people, and those from ethnic minority backgrounds often hesitate to apply unless they meet 100% of the criteria. At P+HS, we value potential and attitude as much as experience. If you meet around 80% of the criteria and are excited about this opportunity, we encourage you to apply.

If you’re passionate about creating architecture that makes a difference, we’d love to hear from you.
