GBP26,000 - GBP30,000 per annum dependent upon experience 25 days holiday entitlement and 8 bank holidays Super-flexible, hybrid role with lots of responsibility Where will I be working?
We are currently a fully remote, home-based team and come together in workspaces as required (typically once a month). This will become more frequent as the charity moves to a more solidified hybrid working model. You should therefore be as comfortable working from an office as you are at home, and expect to travel to our coworking locations or any new fixed base which will be in London, home counties or a c1 hour commute from a mianline London station.
You will play a key role in delivering events across the year - robotics tournaments, employee engagement experientials, conferences and wider awareness-raising activities which will involve travel and overnight stays on occasion.
