In return you’ll work in a supportive team in a bright and airy building which is humming with a wide range of activities. The children in our on-site community nursery never fail to entertain.  We can offer flexible working and a generous annual leave entitlement with company sick pay entitlement from the first day of employment.

This is a fantastic opportunity to join an ambitious local charity and we look forward to hearing from you.
