Service Conditions and Caveats

• Consultant engagement: You join on an initial one-year contract. This is a time-bound consultant assignment with the incubation centre.
• Extension: A further term depends on project needs, your performance and the centre’s policy. Renewal is conditional rather than automatic. The notice also links continuation to the centre’s need for the role.
• Interview expenses: You must meet your own travel and other incidental costs when attending an interview. The centre will not reimburse these expenses, so keep this condition in mind when planning your attendance.
• Appointment decision: The centre may choose to leave the advertised role unfilled. Taking part in the recruitment does not remove that discretion.
• Conduct: Trying to influence the recruitment through canvassing can disqualify you. The notice makes this a condition of participation in the recruitment.
