- Collaborate with colleagues and participate in team meetings, trainings, and professional development activities to enhance the overall effectiveness and impact of the project.
We offer:
- Annual leave entitlement of 25 days per year pro rata, rising in increments to a max. of 29 days after 5 years employment (plus 8 days Bank Holidays)
- An additional day of leave each year for your birthday following completion of probation period.
