Right now, we're looking for a Fun Club Director for our Bulli Fun Club, located at Bulli Public School. This is a Full Time opportunity to work during Before and After School Care and Vacation Care, Monday to Friday. What makes this service special is the dedicated, homely space the service has within the school. We have a strong connection with families, children and community and utmost focus on inclusion of all children.

A supportive and safe workplace

When the going gets tough (as it sometimes does in this sector), you'll find teammates and leaders have your back. There's a real in-it-together feeling here thanks to a safe and supportive environment, and well-established policies and processes that outline exactly what's expected and needed in any situation. Everyone's in it together, making it easier for you to thrive.

We treasure the expertise of our educators

As a Fun Club Director, you'll play a critical role in shaping young minds. You'll create happy, healthy relationships between a child and the most important people in their lives. You'll bring fun, laughter and play to each day, but most importantly, you'll create magical moments for children to experiment and grow.

What you need to succeed

  • A cleared valid for paid work, Working With Children Check (WWCC)
  • Hold all required qualifications to be a Nominated Supervisor (or willing to obtain)
  • Experience as a support worker, SLSO, OOSH Educator/2IC, or engagement with school aged children
  • Commitment to making sure the children in our care are safe and healthy
  • Dedication to improving the lives and minds of children, families, and the community
  • A fun-loving attitude and big smile

There are lots of reasons why a role with us is rewarding

  • Enjoy above award wages, generous Nominated Supervisor allowance, 17.5% leave loading + super.
  • You will feel supported by a Total Well-being Platform that gives you access to self-assessments, articles, toolkits, podcasts, perks and savings, and other resources.
  • You will have the financial peace of mind with 60% discount on early learning and care and out of school hours care services.
  • You can save money with discounts Good Guys, Illawarra Dragons, Illawarra Credit Union and more
  • You can focus on what matters most because you have support from head office specialists and expertise, such as inclusion professionals and pedagogy and practice

How to apply

Please send us:

  • A copy of your resume
  • A brief cover letter that outlines why you are a good fit for the role

Join us and you'll be smiling too, when you make more of a difference.

Safeguarding children is embedded in all we do. Through our Child Safe Framework and Values, we are committed to ensuring the safety and well-being of all children entrusted to our care.
