Deputy Nursery Manager

Are you an experienced room-based Nursery Deputy Manager looking for a new challenge? Would you like to join a newly expanded nursery and be part of a truly collaborative team? With competitive salaries and a passion for staff wellbeing, we could be the setting for you. We want to offer our families year-round provision for children from the age of 6 months. Do you have the vision to help us develop the setting? If so, we want to hear from you!

It goes without saying that you're passionate about working with babies and children, but you'll also need to be qualified in Childcare, understand Ofsted regulations and have an excellent working knowledge of the EYFS framework and principles. Responsible and well-organised, you'll provide an environment where health and safety are paramount, from the physical environment and room set-up to dietary requirements and allergies. You'll be a good role model to your team, providing a high standard of physical, emotional, social and intellectual care to the children under your supervision.

As a successful candidate, you will have a minimum of 2 years experience working in a nursery, post Level 3 or equivalent qualification and a thorough knowledge of legislation, including EYFS. We’d love to hear from you if you fit this profile and are empathetic, caring, and friendly. You should have a positive attitude, excellent communication and written skills, excellent planning and organisation skills, and the ability to build strong, supportive relationships with children, parents and colleagues. You will share the same passion and drive as the Nursery Manager by working together to lead by example.
