You’ll be a confident and influential leader with strong communication and stakeholder‑management skills.

You’ll be self‑motivated, adaptable to change, and passionate about building high‑performing teams while driving continuous improvement and risk mitigation across the business.

This role works Monday – Friday, 37-hours per week.

In return we offer a competitive package, including 24 days annual leave, a pension matched up to 9%, life assurance cover and membership of a health cash plan.
