We know some people use AI and, whilst we would never say don’t use it, we just want to let you know that when people have used AI to help with their application, it can make applications very similar to each other. This makes it difficult when we are looking for a sense of who you are.

Manchester Mind is striving to be an equal opportunities employer and welcomes applications from all sections of the community. Manchester Mind sees it as a positive advantage if you have experience of mental health issues and/or have used mental health services, or had experience of volunteering.
