Hours
This is a permanent, part-time position working 27.5 hours per week.
Our preferred working pattern is Monday to Friday, approximately 8.30am to 2.00pm or 9.30am to 3pm. We can offer some flexibility on start and finish times and would also consider a three or four day working week.
Location and Initial Handover
The permanent base for the role will be Hull.
During the initial handover period, you will need to travel to Rotherham to work alongside the current postholder. The purpose of this period is to familiarise you with the company's existing systems, processes and working practices before the role transfers fully to Hull.
You will therefore need to be able to travel to Rotherham regularly during the initial handover period.
