  • Driving the creation, delivery, and ongoing improvement of inspiring educational programs that spark curiosity and growth
  • Guiding, motivating, and empowering educators to shine in their roles and reach their full potential
  • Championing child-centred, play-based learning that aligns with the latest frameworks and truly puts kids first
  • Building a positive, inclusive, and collaborative culture where every team member feels valued and inspired
  • Leading by example, encouraging reflective practice and best-in-class teaching approaches
  • Connecting and collaborating with families, schools, and community partners to create a strong support network around each child
  • Ensuring all programs meet and exceed compliance requirements while maintaining the highest standards of care

What you’ll bring

  • A Diploma in Children’s Services or equivalent (desirable)
  • Minimum three years’ experience in an Early Childhood Education and Care setting
  • Comprehensive working knowledge of the approved learning framework
  • Demonstrated ability to coach and mentor others
  • Demonstrated excellent communication and interpersonal skills
  • Comprehensive working knowledge of child development, attachment, learning
  • A demonstrated understanding of evidence-based best practice approaches to teaching and learning
  • Working knowledge of leadership theory and the use of a range of leadership styles
  • Well-developed critical thinking skills, including the ability to analyse and challenge conventional practice and ideas
  • Current First Aid and CPR Certification (or willingness to obtain)
  • Current Paid Blue Card (or willingness to obtain)
