You will lead a small team to ensure we deliver a great service to our customers. There will also be a number of key deliverables and managing the performance of your team is key to success.
This is a full time role, working 35 hours Monday - Friday. Your office base will be at our Wakefield Hub so you must be in commuting distance of this office 5 days a week.

About you
- You should be someone who is organised, self-motivated, resilient and can work at pace.
