1. With all the HR opportunities available, what inspires you about this role and what is your motivation for applying with Oasis in particular?

3. After researching the Oasis ethos and 9 Habits, do any of these stand out to you? How might you incorporate them in your daily work and practice?
We actively encourage applications from people of all ethnic backgrounds and minority and underrepresented groups. If you require any assistance to overcome potential barriers, please let us know. 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.
