Will you be part of delivering our vital work?
We are the UK's only employment charity solely for women with convictions.
We’re led by our vision of a society in which no woman is held back by a conviction, and where she has the support, encouragement and opportunities she needs to reset her life and thrive.
We work to create better informed and more empathetic attitudes about women with convictions and to raise awareness about the issues that often underlie women’s offending. In short, we believe no woman should be held back by her past.
This is a dual-role position supporting both the Finance and HR functions of the charity. You will be responsible for maintaining accurate financial records, supporting budget management, and ensuring smooth day-to-day HR operations. This role is ideal for someone with a strong foundation in finance who is looking to broaden their experience in HR.
Flexibility
Our London-based staff operate on a hybrid model, working in our office within London South Bank University (one minute from Elephant and Castle tube station) on Mondays and Tuesdays (for full time staff – part-time staff are only required to work one of those days in the office) and at home for the rest of the week. We also have staff outside London who are fully home-based. We would like the HR Lead to work in the London office on either Monday or Tuesday (or both if preferred) but are flexible as to when in the week the remainder of the hours are worked, provided that there is a consistent working pattern each week. We have specified the number of days for this role as 3-4, meaning a minimum of three and a maximum of four, depending on what the appointed candidate is able to offer on a consistent basis each week.
