Dear PSCI,
We have a job opportunity for an events manager to work on the Cambridge Science Festival, Cambridge Festival of Ideas and other outreach activity at the University of Cambridge, with a fixed-term position becoming available this autumn. Please forward to anyone who may be interested and please note closing date is 15 September. The position covers my existing role while I cover my manager's maternity leave: my bump is just from eating scones all summer.
All the best, Nicky
