'Insulting on so many levels' | London company causes outrage with 'offensive' job advert looking for 'criminal underclass' CEO

A London-based employer has sparked mass controversy and confusion with a recent job listing for an artistic director and joint CEO, offering a salary between £45,000 and £50,000.

However, it’s not the salary or job title that’s prompted the Camden People's Theatre to catch ire online. It’s the content in the job advert, which seeks candidates from unconventional backgrounds, which has been widely criticised for its unusual and contentious language.
