We’re currently recruiting to a new Project Officer role and are ideally looking for someone who can make an immediate and effective impact.

- training and development opportunities
- agile working supported by technology
- flexible working policies
- friendly working environment and great colleagues.
Slough is one of the most diverse places in the country outside of London and a great place to live or work. In fact it's the best place to live or work according to a survey by Glassdoor. Pleasant environments, above average salaries and a lower cost of living, mean an increased quality of life for employees. We're also one of the most accessible places to be, nestled on the corner of the M25, M4 and M40, and less than 20 minutes by train to Central London.
