Most importantly, we're looking for someone who stays calm under pressure, enjoys teamwork, and takes pride in delivering a great operation.
Gist aims to be an inclusive organisation, trusted and admired by our colleagues, customers, and suppliers.
If you consider yourself to require reasonable adjustments to any part of our recruitment process, we invite you to share those requirements with us.
We will make every effort to ensure your needs are met to provide a fair and transparent process of assessment.
If it's meaningful to you, it's important to us.
