This role will be based at home in the short term and will revert to a flexible contract once social distancing rules are relaxed. This will mean a mixture of home working and office-based project and team meetings. This means that candidates outside of a normal commuting distance will be considered for this role, however you must be prepared to visit the Buckingham office with 24 hours' notice.
