The role will mainly be completed from home, but there will be some requirements to visit the head office in Tring although these are minimal, as well as a need to be available to help with the setup of any gazebo/stands at local events (This is just to help with setup, trustees and volunteers are there for the day to day events and close down).

This position will be paying \xc2\xa328k to \xc2\xa332k for the right person, pro-rata\xe2\x80\x99d based on the hours/days that you agree to work.

This role would be ideal for someone organised with great administration and people skills, you must be able to drive and have access to a car (due to the requirement to get to the Tring office as well as any possible events) and the equipment to do this role will be provided.
