hi melanie

thanks for drawing this to my attention the deadline is actually 2nd January.  Would you be able to send it out to the mailing list so everyone knows the deadline has not closed. 

 

An explanation we delayed advertising, partly because I have applied for a guide dog, and when I asked my manager to send me the advert she sent the version that had the old date on it.  One final point, applicants need a sense of humour (and sense of fun also welcome) if they want to work at Birkbeck. 

 

kind regards

Mark

 

PS preferential petting rights with my guide dog Sonny go to Dona for spotting the mistake!
