●Act in accordance with the Data Protection principles at all times.

●Adhere at all times to Stephen Perse operational and employment policies and procedures.

●Take care of your own health and safety and that of people who may be affected by what you do (or do not do).

●Cooperate with others on health and safety, and not interfere with, or misuse, anything provided for your health, safety or welfare.

●Follow the training you have received when using any work items Stephen Perse has provided.

●Adhere to Stephen Perse’s Privacy Notice and ensure private and confidential data is kept secure and disposed of in the appropriate manner.

This job description is not necessarilycomprehensive and the position holder will be required to carry out such other duties as may reasonably be required within the general scope and level of the post.
