Please note that the salary banding for this role falls below the standard salary requirement (referred to in the immigration guidance as the “general threshold”) for a Skilled Worker Visa (which is currently £38,700). The standard salary requirements do not apply to all applicants for a Skilled Worker Visa, and there are a range of other immigration routes to the UK which an applicant may be eligible for depending on their personal circumstances.
Diversity has been part of our DNA since BIG’s foundation. A multitude of cultures and backgrounds creates a new point of reference which leads to amazing insights. At BIG, we value, celebrate and support diversity because it makes our team, work and the built environment better. We are proud to be an equal opportunity workplace and take affirmative action to employ equally regardless of race, colour, ancestry, religion, sex, national origin, sexual orientation, age, citizenship, marital status, disability, or gender. We are committed to promoting equal opportunities and creating a workplace culture in which diversity and inclusion is valued - if you have any questions about this vacancy (or require any reasonable adjustments to be made to the process due to a disability), please specify this in the designated section of the application form.
