While we encourage employers to pay Real Living Wage (£13.45) and will feature the jobs that do, we understand through this cost-of-living crisis that any job is better than no job and will be advertising roles that pay the National Living Wage as well. This will be clearly stated on the description. We also guarantee that there is not a zero-hour contract in sight!
