We will guarantee an interview for applicants living with a disability, provided they meet the essential criteria. Where relevant, this should be indicated on your equal opportunities form which will be anonymised and attached to your redacted application. We have made steps to remove barriers to our workplace, including ensuring a physically accessible studio.
