Above all, we’re looking for someone to join our small team, with a positive and hard working attitude who can take ownership of a key service for Aware Digital. Over time, this role will evolve into a senior level arrangement where you can take charge of your own team. In return, we’ll support you with flexible working arrangements, networking and training opportunities and regular performance appraisals.
