Regular working at other University campuses (at Avery Hill and Greenwich), along with some late working and occasional weekend work to support directorate wide priorities such as registration and open days, and willingness to be part of a flexible work pattern to adequately support the delivery of a 9-5 delivery, will be an on-going requirement of this role.
