WE’RE HIRING -
Deputy Service Leader – Excelsior Public School
Part-time | Mornings & afternoons, Monday to Friday | Full days during school holidays

We’re on the lookout for someone steady, kind and ready to take the next step.
An exciting opportunity has become available at our Castle Hill service location. We are recruiting a Deputy Service Leader. You will be supporting a full-time Service Leader who runs the show, but you’ll be right there beside them helping guide the team, support the kids and keep the service running smoothly.

This is a leadership role, but you’re not on your own. You’ll have guidance, structure and the space to grow. If you’ve got experience working with children and you’re ready to step up (or sideways!) into something more stable and fulfilling, we’d love to hear from you.

The role in a nutshell:
• Helping run a safe, fun, and well-organised before & after school care program
• Providing support to the Service Leader and assuming responsibilities in their absence
• Getting to know the kids and families and building strong, warm relationships
• Fostering a supportive environment where team members feel confident, valued, and included.
• Helping with programming, behaviour support, transitions and routines
•Bringing calm, consistency, and reliability to those around you

You might be the one if you:
• Love working with kids and naturally take the lead when things get busy
• Have great instincts and stay calm when the energy’s high
• Work well in a team and enjoy helping others succeed
• Want a stable Monday to Friday role with split shifts (and full days in holidays)
• Enjoy having clear support and structure—without missing the chance to shine

Still building your confidence? That’s okay.
We’re not looking for perfection. We’re looking for someone with the right attitude, experience with children and a genuine interest in leading well. We’ll give you support, mentoring and the room to grow into the role at your pace.

To get started, you’ll need:
• A valid Working With Children Check
• Current First Aid & CPR (HLTAID012 or HLTAID004)
• Certificate III or higher in Children’s Services (or working towards)
• Experience working with children in OOSH or early years
• Availability Monday–Friday for both morning and afternoon shifts, and full days during holidays

At TASK we are dedicated to promoting equal opportunities for our colleagues—regardless of gender, race, socio-economic background, age, disability, sexual orientation, or national origin.
