What We Offer
If this sounds like you, here’s what you can expect from us:
The role is officially based full time at GuyKat offices in Birmingham. In practice, most of our team currently enjoy flexible hybrid working, with an expectation that people attend the office at least 2 days per week for the first 2 years of employment. You may also be required to attend the office more often to support the business when meetings, workshops, and other such activities are required.
Clear, structured career progression. We don’t hire to fill a role, we hire for the long term. From day one, we’ll be working with you to develop your skills, expand your responsibilities, and help you grow into something bigger than the role you started in.
Salary range: £28,000 – £35,000 per year
PLEASE INCLUDE A COVER LETTER WITH YOUR APPLICATION!
You must submit a CV and a cover letter. The cover letter is far more important than the CV. Applications without a cover letter will be automatically rejected.
By all means use AI to help spell check or review your cover letter - but please write the substantive cover letter yourself, using your own voice. If you bang this ad through AI and say 'write me a cover letter' you'll produce something the same as 90% of the others we get. If somehow you made the interview, you'd be caught out there. Be you.
Your cover letter should explain what attracted you to the role and why GuyKat appeals to you. If your personality comes through, even better! We’re looking for natural communicators.
