Initially you’ll be working remotely due to Covid-19 restrictions, but longer term they envisage this role being carried out through a mixture of office and home working - if you’d prefer to be in the office though, that’s fine too. On this basis, the role might suit someone who lives slightly further afield, as long as you’d be happy to commute to Exeter.
The company offer a really decent benefits package including private medical cover, a good pension scheme and holiday entitlement, free parking and more.
They are able to interview promptly and are ready for the successful candidate to start immediately, so if you’re interested (or know someone who might be!) then get in touch with Sky for an informal chat.
