I understood that they wanted someone who was ideally *not* a native
English speaker. That was something that concerned me when I read it,
because it looked as if the intention was to disadvantage applicants
who had English as a first language. Or did I misunderstand it?

level) effectively in a language other than English (ideally as a
native speaker)"
