ADDITIONAL NOTES

This is a remote contractor role, there is no office. Almost all of our regular meetings are online -you need to be comfortable (and disciplined) to work alone/remotely much of the time.

Although we are a truly global organisation all meetings and operations are conducted in English, therefore language skills are not essential beyond excellent fluent English.
