If you're thinking of using AI to write your cover letter, that's awesome - because we're all about innovation. However, rather than sending the output, we're keen for you to just send us the prompt you would have used instead.

After reviewing your application we'll reach out for a conversation if we appear to be well matched. Note that only applications received via Seek can be considered.

Inde will be closed for the holidays from 19 December. We'll be responding to applications when we return on Monday 12 January. Thanks for your patience.
