In return we give that flexibility back. If it’s working remote, or working part time, we are open to all conversations. The world of work has always been flexible for instructors, so it’s the same approach as we develop our core support team.

We look for attitude over skill (but we’ll take both of course), problem solvers who can help us find a way forward, even if they haven’t seen it before.
