We are seeking Lead Educators for our well-established Randwick Long Day Care Centre. Catering to 160 children per day. Our Centre is a design marvel. Its open-plan indoor design enables Educators in every room to have full visibility and support from other teams.

We value leadership roles at our Centre. Therefore, we encourage only applicants who believe they possess the necessary skill set, attitude, and experience to apply. The most essential attributes to possess are teamwork and a willingness to work hands-on with the team, as this approach has been proven to strengthen morale and foster a positive workplace culture.

Our Centre Director has been in the sector for many years and is highly passionate about our Centre. She is also very hands-on and ensures that all team members receive the necessary support in their daily duties. There is a huge sense of shared responsibility at the Centre. Therefore, we require a candidate willing to contribute to a greater goal, not just complete their daily tasks.

To be considered for this role, the Lead Educator must have established leadership skills and the ability to support the daily duties of their room team, including implementing a sound educational program for children aged 3 to 5 years. They must also have a can-do attitude and find creative ways to engage with their team, families, and the local community.

We are very passionate about providing our families with detailed information about their child's day, and the Lead Educator must be prepared to document learning journeys and oversee their team members doing the same. Our Educational Leader is also heavily involved in working with Lead Educators, supporting them to deliver a high-quality program. The Lead Educator needs to be willing to work collaboratively with them.

We are very committed to the ongoing development of our team. That is why we have an embedded professional learning program in which Educators engage in critical reflection, collaboration, and knowledge sharing.
