So at the end of my day I can say…
I love my job because no two days are ever the same. I may be on site for the morning, afternoon, a whole day, or not at all. My office is in Cambridge, but I sometimes work from the London Office, and I can work from home if I need to. I have so many opportunities on a range of projects, working with so many different teams. I don't think it's possible to get bored with this much momentum and variety!Do you want to join our team?
