• A great communicator and team player with supervisory skills to manage, develop, and motivate a large team.
• Financially astute, with full training provided on processes and software systems.
• Qualified or experienced in a craft background.

• £32,500 per annum

At Pabulum, our role is built around three core ingredients:

• The people – Ensuring an excellent customer experience to keep our customers happy and coming back.
