How would you like to be paid for five days but only work four*?
Our colleagues’ wellbeing is at the heart of everything we do at OFG, so we’re always looking for new ways to improve everyone’s work/life balance. We’re taking part in a trial of the 4-Day Working Week, meaning that you could be working one day less a week (or equivalent).
If the trial is a success, we’ll be rolling the 4DWW out across the Group – so there’s never been a more exciting time to join #teamOFG!

Key Responsibilities

- Experience in an educational or residential setting (desirable but not essential)

This is a rewarding opportunity to make a real difference in the lives of young people, helping them achieve their potential in a nurturing and supportive environment.
If you are enthusiastic, compassionate, and eager to contribute to a team that values inclusivity, growth, and resilience, we would love to hear from you.
