Key Responsibilities:

We offer a generous annual leave entitlement, which increases by 5 days after 5 years' service with the organisation. Hybrid working is a key feature of this role, allowing you to work from home and attend other work places as required.

We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, young people, and vulnerable adults, and expect all staff to share this commitment. Applicants to posts that are exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act will require a DBS from the Disclosure and Barring Service before the appointment is confirmed.

We aim to be a talented, resilient, and inclusive community, welcoming applications from all. We offer a variety of flexible working/job share opportunities for both full and part-time staff.

All applications are anonymised before being seen by the selection panel. We reserve the right to close the post in the event of high levels of response. You are advised to submit your application form as soon as possible.
