We do request a minimum commitment of 2-3 days (12-18 hours) per week.

In return, we offer a competitive compensation package, including guaranteed pay of £12 per hour during your 8-week training period. Additional benefits include holiday allowance, pension contributions, fortnightly pay cycle, and access to our wellbeing and discount platform, which offers vouchers and savings on everyday items. Once you transition to performance-based pay, you can expect competitive rates in the sector, with average rates ranging from £14.00 to £17.00 per hour based on project requirements, including evening and weekend hours. Mileage costs will be reimbursed, and the role offers flexibility in terms of working days and hours. This position is ideal for individuals seeking part-time work with a minimum commitment of 2-3 days per week.

We are committed to your support and development. You will have access to dedicated support teams, an accredited training period with live support and online learning, and one-on-one coaching. We also provide opportunities for career development and progression, and you can connect with other interviewers through our social media communities and in-person coffee mornings. Face-to-face and remote project briefings will ensure you are well-prepared for success.

If you believe you are the right fit for this role and own a car, we invite you to apply now and begin your journey. By completing our award-winning training program, you will gain accreditation and have the satisfaction of knowing that your work makes a difference on both a local and national level.
