Dear All
Further to my message yesterday I would just like to point out that
I have inadvertently forwarded the version of the advert which went
on our own internal e-notice-board instead of the external version.
The version that will appear in CILIP does not include the word
"internal" in reference to the possibility of secondment. However
secondment from external organisations is perfectly acceptable to
us, although it would of course also have to be at the discretion of
the applicant's home organisation.
I am now sending you the correct version. Sorry for the mix up!
As before full details, an application form and equal opportunities
monitoring form can be printed out / downloaded from
http://rylibweb.man.ac.uk/vacancies/
Best wishes
Katy
