Advert

  • Are you passionate about making a difference in the lives of young people? 
  • Do you want to be a part of a values led, driven and innovative team developing the UK’s first secure school?

As part of the Finance Team, the Finance Assistant will play a key role in helping to create an innovative, inclusive, and therapeutic environment for staff and children alike. Initially the postholder will largely play a hands-on role in a growing team as well as helping the team to set up the processes and systems to get the school operational and then as it becomes more established will provide a more broad, professional Finance service in alignment with Oasis Restore ethos and values, and accounting practices and safeguarding law.

If you are passionate about Finance, would like to contribute with ideas and be part of a responsive Finance team who is setting something unique to generate a department that wants to make a difference in the lives of young people and staff, we encourage you to apply for this exciting opportunity.

The role and what we are looking for

Are you ready for an opportunity of a lifetime?

We are looking for someone who already is, or is looking to make the next step, to being a Finance Assistant.

At Oasis Restore, we're building a brand-new organisation that has never been tried before in the UK. And you could be part of it. As the Finance Assistant, you'll have a once-in-a-lifetime chance to positively change the lives of disadvantaged children in custody or on remand.

As part of our Finance Team, you'll play a crucial role in creating the systems and process to ensure that we provide a high level of service to all stakeholders inside and outside of the organisation. Of course, you won't be doing it alone.

You'll have the full support of a Chief Financial Officer and Finance Manager in your immediate team and the opportunity to collaborate with other Finance teams within the wider Oasis family. You'll have the chance to network, shadow, and receive training opportunities to grow and develop your Finance career.

And we'll help you define your own tailored CPD opportunities based on your interests, whether it's ACCA, CIMA, AAT or even just a course on MS Excel. So, if you're self-motivated, diligent, and willing to learn quickly through trial and error, this could be the opportunity you've been waiting for.

Apply now to join the team at Oasis Restore and make a real difference in the lives of others. Our Secure School Oasis Restore is the country’s first secure school that is a proof-of-concept policy initiative funded by the Ministry of Justice (MoJ) and the Youth Custody Service.

Oasis Restore’s mission is to transform the life chances of children aged 12-18 years in the criminal justice system through delivering psychologically informed, integrated practice that centres on trusted, safe relationships between staff and children.

Oasis Restore is a learning community that embeds hope, stability, and opportunity for children beyond the secure school. To read more about us please visit our website www.oasisrestore.org.
