  • Previous experience as a Deputy Nursery Manager is essential.
  • Strong knowledge of the EYFS framework, safeguarding, and Ofsted requirements.
  • Experience supporting nursery teams and maintaining high-quality practice.
  • Excellent leadership, communication, and organisational skills.
  • A proactive, positive approach to supporting children, families, and colleagues.
  • A genuine passion for delivering outstanding early years education and care.

What You'll Receive

  • Up to £34,000 per year
  • Approximately 12-month maternity cover contract
  • Discounted childcare
  • Day off on your birthday
  • Benefits portal
  • Pension scheme
  • Staff incentives
  • Wellbeing programme
  • Ongoing training and professional development

Your Role

  • Support the Nursery Manager with the day-to-day running of the nursery.
  • Lead, motivate, and develop the nursery team to maintain consistently high standards.
  • Monitor the quality of care, education, and learning experiences across the setting.
  • Support staff through coaching, mentoring, and regular supervision.
  • Build strong relationships with children, families, colleagues, and external professionals.
  • Help maintain safe, stimulating, and inclusive learning environments, making full use of the nursery's sensory resources and free-flow spaces.
  • Ensure safeguarding, health and safety, and nursery policies are consistently followed.
  • Take responsibility for the nursery in the Manager's absence.

All appointments are subject to safer recruitment requirements, including an enhanced DBS check, satisfactory references, and verification of the right to work in the UK, in line with safeguarding responsibilities.
