Whether you prefer to work a short time, part-time, or stay for a lifetime, we’d love to hear from you.
We have loads of job opportunities from front of house to maintenance, marketing, and digital content. We aren’t recruiting clones of what we already have, we want your unique skills and perspective to make We The Curious a great place to visit and work.
We welcome applications from people of all backgrounds, especially those who are not well represented in science.
We know that individuals from underrepresented groups such as those facing ableism, ageism, classism, economic disparity, gender identity, homophobia, racism, and transphobia will always find it more difficult to get into work in places like We The Curious. We really want to change that.
Our goal is for our teams to reflect the diversity of our city by 2026
We have a journey ahead of us. We're making lots of changes to our recruitment processes, working culture, policies, and spaces to create an environment where everyone feels they belong and can contribute.
We meet a global community every day and it’s important we ourselves are a diverse team.
Those representing the global majority, members of the LGBTQ+ community, individuals with disabilities, and anyone else not represented at We The Curious are strongly encouraged to apply.
We provide an accessible candidate experience, and if you need any accommodations or adjustments throughout the interview process and beyond, please let us know.
We're dedicated to having an inclusive and diverse environment for employees from all walks of life. We'd love for you to join us.

Meet your (future) team
Our people are at the centre of what we do, and they include all our wonderful staff, volunteers and trustees.
Meet the team Our values
Our values are inquisitive, playful, progressive, collaborative and creative. They bring us together and guide every decision we make and action we take.
We are on a journey to become Disability Confident Leaders. We're committed to recruiting and retaining disabled people. We value what lived experience brings and are making changes to remove barriers for everyone.
We're striving to fill our teams with as many unique perspectives as possible, to have a workplace culture of shared understanding and effective collaboration, supporting our people to thrive - both personally and professionally.
We have Disability Champions leading the way, who host a Disability Belonging Network – a safe space for our people to share and build a community at work.
We understand the privilege we hold as part of the wider STEM sector, and we're committed to becoming an anti-racist organisation. We've set ambitious goals for ourselves and are dedicated to driving change in our strategy, policies, representation, and workplace culture.
Leading the way, our Race Equity Champions host a Black, Brown, and Asian Belonging Network - a safe space for our people to share experiences and build a supportive community at work.
We care about your wellbeing and are dedicated to helping you thrive and reach your full potential.
Our Being Well Team is here to create a culture that values both physical and emotional wellness at work. They plan activities like motivational sessions, celebratory lunches, after-work yoga, and mindfulness guidance, as well as running monthly wellbeing pulse surveys. These actions are tailored to the needs of our People.
Additionally, our Wellbeing Team offers individual check-ins for those who request one-on-one guidance and support.
Reimagined application process
We want you to succeed, be included, and belong. To do this, we had to start at the beginning of our People journey and reimagine almost every part of our recruitment process.
Our goal for recruitment is one that is fair, equitable, consistent, collaborative, and transparent across the whole organisation.
To find out about the application process see our Applicant Guide.

A bit about the process
- All applications are anonymised before scoring; we want to remove any bias.
- Supporting you to do well – we provide interview questions in advance; you're welcome to bring notes and a support person to your interview if this helps you.
- If you've got any questions about the process or your application, please contact us, we're happy to offer guidance, and if required make adjustments for application and interview stage.
- Guaranteed interviews – as part of our commitment as a Disability Confident Employer, we offer interviews to anyone who identifies as disabled and reaches the minimum shortlisting criteria for a role. We follow the social model of disability, and you're not expected to provide evidence to qualify.
