Firstly, you'll be joining us at Oasis, where we are looking to build stronger communities and provide exceptional education for our pupils that enhances their lives. Sound like something you'd want to contribute to?

In this role you’ll be integral to the running of our academy. Like a varied and interesting role? You'll be involved with finance, managing staff, HR/recruitment amongst others. No day is necessarily the same.

Struggle to balance work and manage family life during school holidays or are you someone who likes the idea of travelling over summer? Then this could be the opportunity for you. This is a term time plus 2 role meaning you have 11 weeks off a year.

Ultimately you’re someone who wants to join us on our journey. There have been a lot of changes at Oasis Benson since the beginning of 2025 and you’ll be key in supporting the changes that are being made. If you share our vision and this sounds exactly what you are looking for then please read on!

We have a great and committed team, so it’s someone who can best support them. You’ll often be the first interaction with parents and local community, so someone who enjoys meeting people and who recognises challenges parents and the community may have and is supportive and a good communicator is key here.

We can’t talk about a role in education without mentioning our students, our pupils are lovely and you might be one of the first friendly and supportive faces some of our students see.

Alongside this you’ll undertake tasks you may expect of an Operations or General Manager. A good attention to detail, a wide range of knowledge and multi-tasking is key for this role.

Areas you’ll be involved in include:

• Central point of contact for regional support teams (IT, Finance, HR etc)
• Data Protection/GDPR lead in Academy
• Health & Safety lead
• HR first point of contact
• Comms lead in academy

You’ll be joining an Academy on a journey to best support our students and community. We have some excellent facilities and space and blend a traditional Victorian build with modern classrooms.

You’ll be joining an academy where our pupils want to learn, where behaviour is positive and where there is great ambition to work together and deliver change.
