The role provides 20 days’ annual leave plus bank holidays, with additional leave incentives linked to out-of-hours support, and the opportunity to work closely with senior decision-makers in a collaborative, team-focused environment. This is a rare opportunity to step into a high-impact leadership role within a respected and expanding operator.
