Salary of £45,000â£55,000, depending on experience.
-
Discretionary annual performance bonus based on individual and Company performance.
-
Company Life Insurance (currently providing £100,000 of cover).

We support flexible working where appropriate. Hybrid working arrangements may be agreed following successful completion of probation, taking into account business requirements, the nature of the role and individual performance.
