I found this ad in my inbox today and thought I would post it to see if anyone is interested.
The same job was advertised about two months ago which seems to suggest they are having difficulty in finding a suitable candidate, possibly due to the fact the wage offered is low in comparison to other ads I have seen recently. Ad copied and pasted as received.
