The role will always be an individual contributory role (as opposed to growing and managing a team) but could get involved in auditing and reporting or in projects or in forecasting and budgeting for example. But for the shorter-term, you will need to be passionate about performing the duties of this specific junior-mid level role and requirements.
The working hours are 40 per week - 9am-6pm with an unpaid 1-hour lunch break.
