Regional Deputy Finance Manager – London South East
Oasis Community Learning delivers amazing education to disadvantaged communities across England and we are exceptionally proud of the impact we have on young lives. What we do together is truly transformational.
But we can’t do that effectively without close attention to the budgets that keep our educational settings operational. So, we need someone who is equally amazing to lead on our regional financial strategy, systems and policies.
We offer
* A steady and sustainable work life balance that is often not achievable in the finance industry – we want you to be able to enjoy life AND work.
* A strong Continuous Professional Development program with training opportunities – what do you want to become? We can help you get there.
* A supportive network and family of staff in a motivating working environment – seeing young people thrive and succeed because of our cumulative efforts is heart-warming. Every day.
* A competitive pension scheme with defined benefits, life cover and lower tax – who doesn’t like the idea of that?
* A benefits offer that reflects YOUR personal lifestyle – from bikes to pets to shopping discounts and more.
* A core ethos and set of values that is lived and breathed by everyone. Equality, Inclusion, Healthy Relationships, Hope and Perseverance are non-negotiable.
* A generous annual leave allowance of 25 + 8 (Bank Holiday) days per year rising to 30 + 8 after 2 years of service.
AND the chance to work with brilliantly like-minded and inspiring people such as Melanie (Regional Finance Manager) and the wider Finance team at Oasis.
The role and requirements:
The Regional Deputy Finance Manager will work closely with the Regional Finance Manager (Melanie) to provide strategic leadership to academies within the region and oversee the regional finance processing team supporting the London Southeast academies.

* Be able to bring experience in managing a team, including apprentices and trainees
* Be able to lead on the implementation of financial strategy, systems and policies

Oasis is committed to making a difference to the lives of the communities it works in, and as such you must show a willingness to demonstrate commitment to the values and behaviours, which flow from the Oasis ethos.
