Just a quick query.
If you are in your 50's would you be put off an office described as 'energetic with daily deadlines which must be met'. It states quite clearly the ability to work under pressure.
I am a returner to work and perhaps my judgement is not as it should be. Perhaps, this would suite better a younger person. However, in saying that i have worked in a similar role!

Run for the hills.
Words, words, they're all we have to go by!.
(Pity they are mangled by this autocorrect!)
That was my instant impression as well.
Doesn't mean you shouldn't go for it. But if it's an office full of twenty somethings don't be surprised if you get knocked back.
