"I just wanted to say a big thank you for your help. Without networking with you I would not have been so prepared for it. If it wasn't for Powering Potential all those years ago I would not have developed into the person I am today. So for that, I thank you."

A cover letter is optional instead of completing the application questions. While we encourage the use of innovative technology in our work, we want to hear your voice and personality in your application. AI is a tool, not a shortcut. This doesn’t mean asking AI to do the work for you, or copying and pasting answers, as this would limit the way you can showcase your personal experiences and strengths.
In your cover letter consider telling us your skills, experience or approach to the headings and activities we’ve outlined in ‘Key Responsibilities'. Then tell us about how you meet the person specification.
