Two roles are currently vacant and open to applications. The Late Evening LSA is a permanent position and is 8 hours per week (Monday – Thursday 8pm to 10pm). The Late Weekend LSA is a fixed term position for up to 12 months and is 9 hours per week (Friday, Saturday and Sunday 5pm to 8pm). Both positions are term time only (30 weeks per year).
