**About the role**

We're looking for a dynamic and experienced individual to take on the role of Director at our Anglicare at Southern Cross Early Learning service, situated on the welcoming and leafy Southern Cross Early Childhood School Campus.

A significant aspect of your role will involve maintaining and enhancing the strong, caring relationships at the core of our practice, maintaining a commitment to ongoing quality improvement and ensuring high levels of regulatory compliance. An experienced and skilled leadership team will support you in this endeavour, ensuring consistency and continuity in our Early Childhood Education and Care approach.

**To be successful in this role, you will bring**:

- ACECQA-approved relevant Early Childhood Education and Care qualifications, including a minimum of a Diploma in Early Childhood Education and Care.
- Solid experience in leadership/management roles within the Early Childhood sector, with ECT qualification levels preferred.
- Exceptional communication and interpersonal skills, fostering positive relationships with children, families, colleagues, and all stakeholders.
- Comprehensive knowledge of the National Quality Framework and Standards, the Early Years Learning Framework/My Time, Our Place Framework, and a commitment to implementing these processes.
- Embodiment of Anglicare's compassion, integrity, inclusion, and dignity values.
- Demonstrated awareness of the rights of the child and mandatory reporting obligations.
- Current First Aid, CPR, Asthma, and anaphylaxis qualifications.
