FAQ’s

Can the role be worked only remotely?
For the most part, yes, however we do need you to be able to attend in person events in Sheffield working evenings and weekends, therefore you need to be able to travel to Sheffield for these events. We do not have budget to accommodate long distance travel.

I’m not in the North of England, can I apply?
We define the North of England to include the East and West Midlands, but we would like the Project Coordinator to be a commutable distance from Sheffield as we are committed to offering opportunities to those who may not have access to such opportunities in the North of England. 

How flexible are you with working days?
As this is a freelance role we understand you will have other commitments. We just ask that you be able to allocate some of your working hours between Tuesdays – Fridays in order to be able to work with the Andro and Eve teams’ core working hours. 

I only have one reference, is this an issue?
We ask for references in order that we can check that the experience you have outlined in your application has been gained in a previous role. As stated in the recruitment pack, this does not need to be a paid role, or even an employment. They could be anyone who knows you in a professional or volunteer capacity. But they should be able to speak to things like your punctuality, reliability and know something about the skills you have related to this role.

It is important that we seek two references so we get a well rounded view of your past experience. We will not contact anyone without your consent.
