Django Girls is recruiting for two roles (which could be filled by one person if appropriate). Each role will be an initial 6-month contract, with the potential to renew this on a rolling basis (dependent on funding available). All contractors receive a rate of £20 per hour. The successful candidate will need to be registered as self-employed and be able to invoice Django Girls monthly.
The roles will be advertised until filled, so please apply early.
We pay contractor invoices on receipt (honestly, we actually do!).
