Just one addition needed – as the role is fully remote, the candidate needs to be able to provide a home office workspace and suitable internet connection. We will provide pretty much everything else (laptop, screens, peripherals, software, access, etc.). We typically put this in our own adverts as:
Access to a reliable broadband connection at home (5Mbps or better).
Suitable environment at home to work from, including space to run multiple monitors.
