Please note: Duties may vary and are not limited to the above.
What We’re Looking For
- Kind, dependable, and proactive individual
- Good communicator with a strong sense of responsibility
- Ability to work independently and as part of a small team
- Comfortable working night shifts and being awake and alert throughout
- Willingness to be flexible to meet the needs of the client and team
Requirements
- Proficiency in English
- Full UK Driving Licence
