At C&K, our purpose is to make a positive impact on children’s lives. It’s what we’ve been doing for more than 115 years. Through evidence-based thinking, hard work and true compassion, we’ve built a trusted reputation as Queensland’s leading provider of early childhood education. And as a child safe organisation, we put children's safety and wellbeing at the heart of everything we do, creating nurturing spaces where children can learn, explore, play and grow.

Consider a career within office administration. C&K is currently seeking applications for a Trainee Administration Assistant, based at our Central office.

“I love being part of an organisation whose vision is to see a state ‘where every child flourishes’. I value the opportunity to contribute, even in a small way, to the impactful work that is being done in the early childhood education sector.” - Alex Bron, Management Accountant
