Summary
Shift patterns
This 16 hour post this would involve working one shift per week between the hours of 0830-0830 hours (includes a sleepover). Weekends and public holidays would form part of your rota on a rotational basis for both roles.
The sleepover part of your shift isn't included in your contracted hours, so you will also get an additional £96 for each sleepover worked.
