Any idea of the salary you’re offering? I am based in Parkhurst and am looking for a part-time position. Pretty much fit the bill in terms of your requirements :)

Would like to chat about the possibility of you expanding into our business of entertainment – an agency perhaps?

This sounded like a job sent from heaven. Too bad you are in JHB and I’m in CT. If you ever decided to expand, please keep me in mind!
