Working arrangements

This is a blended role, where your work will be dual located between your home and either our London office or Northampton office. 

At the BHF we believe in the power of being together, so our colleagues on blended contracts can expect to spend some time in their office, at least one day each week, on average. The use of our office spaces is driven in part by your role and the activities you need to do. This may vary from time to time, so you will need to work in a flexible way to unlock your best work for our cause.

This role will also require quarterly travel to our regional offices.
