We are looking for an HR Business Partner who can help develop our people and teams, supporting a positive culture built on our relationships, vision, and ethos.  

Oasis exists to create healthy thriving communities and reduce exclusion, through a holistic approach to community development and social innovation.

This is a new and integral position in our charity, so you will need solid employee relation experience and employment law knowledge, to advise managers confidently.

Completed applications should be returned by 9am Friday 2nd August 2024.

Final interviews will take place in London on Wednesday 14th August 2024. Please submit your CV and covering letter at your earliest convenience. In your covering letter, please answer the following three questions:

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

2. Please give examples that demonstrate you have the personal qualities, experience, and skills required for this role. Please highlight your experience in previous HR roles, and detail examples of where you have been successful in making an impact in terms of developing people and advising management. You may not have equal experience in all areas (of a wide-ranging brief) so please highlight what you consider to be the areas of strength or particular experience that you’ve gained to date.

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. 

We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people. We expect all staff to share this commitment and to undergo appropriate checks, including enhanced DBS checks. The successful candidate will need to show proof of right to work in the UK.
