Why us?

We’re a small organisation with a big mission and we recognise the importance of a work/life balance.  We can offer flexibility and understand that this looks different for each candidate.  We’re open to considering those who would like part time or compressed hours.  At a minimum, we need someone to work three days a week spread across the week but there is scope for four days or a schedule that works around school hours for the right candidate.

Our office is based in Borough High Street and we currently work Tuesday/Wednesday in the office, with Monday, Thursday and Friday working from home.  The nature of this role means that you will sometimes have to travel to deliver a training session in person which you can schedule within your work hours.  With the shift to hybrid working, a large amount of our training is delivered virtually online.

You’d be joining an organisation with an important mission where protecting those under-18 plays a significant role in our regulatory work.
