Overview

This is a part-time role (28 hours per week) and the salary will be paid pro rata accordingly. This is a permanent contract role at 28 hours/week based in Guildhall, Central London. Flexible working arrangements are currently in place with a current requirement to attend the office 3 days per week pro-rata. Time can also be spent at the offices at Tower Bridge. If this role is advertised as a secondment, secondments are subject to the agreement of your department releasing you, therefore, you need to discuss this with your line manager prior to applying. The purpose of this will be to discuss what, if any, impact your secondment might have on the service and service delivery should your application be successful, and how this might be addressed.
