However, if we receive a large number of applications we may have to develop this process – we will confirm details with everyone who applies by end of business on Tuesday 13 July 2021. All meetings will take place virtually with no need to travel and all reasonable access requirements provided.
Thanks for your interest in working with us and we look forward to hearing from you.
