Additional info
🏢 The role is primarily office-based, but there is an opportunity to work from home for 2-3 days a week, to be decided at the company’s discretion.
🐕🦺 We also have an extremely friendly four-legged chief morale officer in the office and so candidates will need to be comfortable working in the proximity of a cute and at times productivity-lowering dog.
Closing Date: Monday 3rd February 2025.
Interview/Start Dates
Successful candidates will be invited to take part in a monitoring test and interview. We envisage the successful candidate will start in early April.
