Work/life balance. Their standard working week is 35.5 hours but there is so much flexiblity if these hours don't suit your individual needs. For applicants who have the right skills and experience, they will consider part time hours or even up to 39 hours for those wanting to earn a little more. As long as you can commit to at least three days per week and work at least 5 hours per day, you can almost tailor your working week to suit other commitments. Things like school drop off/pick ups, caring for elderly relatives and home studying can easily be achieved alongside this role.
