    ~ At TOPdesk, we're passionate about creating an inclusive workplace that promotes and values diversity. We welcome and encourage applications from people of all backgrounds, ages, identities, religions, disabilities, and with a culturally or linguistically diverse background.

    Research shows that, unlike men, women and people from disadvantaged backgrounds are much less likely to apply for a role they don't meet 100% of the criteria for.

    If you feel like you meet most but not all the criteria and genuinely have a strong passion for, and desire to learn then we'd be happy to help you acquire those skills at TOPdesk and encourage you to apply.
