A unique opportunity has arisen for a Deputy Room Lead at Horizon Childcare working with children in our 0-2's age group.
The role would suit someone wanting to take a first step towards leadership by working closely with the Room Lead and stepping up in the Room Lead’s absence. We are looking for someone who is personable, friendly and sensitive to the needs of our youngest children.
An ideal applicant will already understand the importance of warm and welcoming body language when working with babies and the needs and attachments that are vital at this stage of life. As well as this, a successful applicant will need to have sound knowledge of the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) and will already hold a Level 2 qualification or above. Previous experience working with babies is desirable but not essential as training will be provided.
Our nursery is on a continual journey of growth and improvement; we are looking for someone who will share the commitment we have to our families to always strive for better.
Our team fosters a supportive and inclusive approach to work. We are looking for an individual who is enthusiastic, caring, motivated, pro-active and have a passion for making a difference to Early Years education to share the values of our current team. The parents of our nursery have voted our team as our best asset year after year. If you want to be part of a team that goes above and beyond to support families, this is the role for you.
The successful candidate would have the opportunity to develop their own practice, help to shape the delivery of our curriculum, manage children’s routines and work together with families to support each child as an individual; training will be given to achieve in these areas.
In return, we can offer:
- Career progression
- All year round contract suited to candidates needs
- High quality training and qualification opportunities
- A supportive, inclusive team environment
- Competitive pay, reviewed annually on performance and qualifications
- Opportunities for leadership and management training
