What we expect:

On the odd occasion there may be a requirement to work away during the week, sometimes with a colleague and sometimes by yourself, hence the need to not only be a good team player but also just as comfortable working on your own initiative.

We always value a good work/home life balance and work on a "Swings and Roundabout" ethos. In other words, what you put in you'll get out (normally in bucket loads).

Do we pay overtime? Sometimes, but not often, we prefer to give time off in lieu to maintain the good work/home life balance.

• Starting salary negotiable 35k - 40k, with a review after a successful 3-month probationary period.
• 28days, free-choice, holiday (includes bank holidays) - 1st Jan to 31st Dec.
