## Notice

(Aula Senior Product Designer). The extension is necessary as the Aula roadmap will cease without a Product Designer and at this stage with the backlog of work, this risk is too high. The plans for permanent recruitment have made some progress and is the long-term plan to achieve the overall financial savings for the Aula product development team. However, these will not be in place before the current end date of 31st October. The contractor's engagement would ensure continuity of the Product Design function and ensure the pipeline to engineering fulfilled.
