It’s difficult to describe all aspects of the job role and team culture so we’d love for you to get in touch for an informal chat.

We aim to design a recruitment process which is fair, informal (as far as possible!) and that honestly explores the skills and characteristics required to succeed in P+A. Our recruitment process is dynamic and interactive. It’s just as important for you to choose us as it is for us to choose you.
