This is a fantastic opportunity to make the Officer Manager role your own, whilst working in a small and very friendly team. A full handover will provided to the successful candidate.

My client is keen to recruit someone to begin by the middle of August, at the latest, so that there is time for a thorough handover with the relevant support and training.
