We’re Goodstart

At Goodstart, we’re all about laying the foundation for better lives through amazing early learning experiences, and we know that we can’t do that without great people

From our centre directors to centre teams, we work together to make a real difference for children in those crucial early years.

Safety, health and wellbeing are more than just words to us, they are a personal commitment and a promise we make to our children, our families and each other every day.

We’re Goodstart - a not-for-profit with a vision for Australia’s children to have the best possible start in life.

You’ll help achieve this by

Lead the development and implementation of an effective educational program, pedagogy, and practice in their centre
Review current educational programs and documentation in their centre
Consult and collaborate with the team of educators to develop and confirm approaches to educational programs, practice, and documentation; that includes assessment and an understanding of children’s learning and development

There are so many reasons to join the Goodstart family. Let’s start with the benefits

Paid professional development - we offer a range of opportunities to grow your skills and your career
Competitive pay you’ll get paid on par with state primary school Teachers (if you hold your bachelor’s in early childhood education and Care or equivalent)
Wellbeing Focus - You’ll get two wellbeing days included in your personal leave per year. And our dedicated wellbeing program will ensure you get the support you need, when you need it most
Additional leave - you’ll have the option to purchase extra leave for even greater work life balance
4 weeks paid parental leave - increasing to 6 weeks from December 2023
Retail and childcare discounts - you’ll save money on insurance, travel and technology, and get 50% discount off your childcare gap fees

**You’ll also love**:
Centre support - dedicated support and guidance on a range of topics, such as safety, teaching and inclusion, delivered face to face or virtually by our centre support team
Security and stability - with over 670 centres across Australia, you’ll have the support of a large network and the stability of a respected organisation

If you have previous experience leading change in education and have either a Bachelor of Education (Early Childhood Education), a Diploma qualification or ACECQA approved equivalent, then we want to meet you
