Sunshine Coast, Australia The Creche and Kindergarten Association Full time

Would you like to use your skills, leadership and passion for education to create confident lifelong learners? Find a better way with C&K.

**For Children. For You. For Always.**

At C&K Cotton Tree Childcare Centre, we welcome children from 6 weeks of age to 5 years old and provide care and early learning five days a week from 7:00am to 6:00pm.

C&K Cotton Tree has been a fixture in the community for 40 years and originally opened its doors in May 1976. It is a purpose-built Childcare Centre with 5 rooms. We have a dining room, a great space where the children sit, talk and eat with the educators. The room is also used for celebrations, workshops and special events.

The local community are supportive with our fundraising ventures and the Centre in return supports the local businesses and purchase goods locally.

Are you ready to make a difference that lasts a lifetime?

At C&K, our purpose is to make a positive impact on children’s lives. It’s what we’ve been doing for more than 115 years. Through evidence-based thinking, hard work and true compassion, we’ve built a trusted reputation as Queensland’s leading provider of early childhood education.

But times are changing, and so are we. And although we’re passionate believers that children come first, we know our people must come first, too.

Join us and find a better way with C&K - for children, for you, for always.
- “C&K mean what they say. Putting children first is an embedded part of all their thinking and decision making. I love working with like-minded people.”_
- Rebecca Ireland - Director, Yuingi Childcare Centre_

**Help shape the future of children in our care**

As our highly valued Assistant Director with our Cotton Tree team, you’ll nurture an inclusive, collaborative and supportive team culture where everyone can belong, grow and thrive.

With energy, creativity and care, you’ll lead a team of passionate people to deliver a quality educational program for children aged 6 weeks to 5 years in our play-based learning environment. You’ll play an integral role in the overall operations and management of the centre to encourage and nurture children’s learning and development so they can become curious, capable and confident lifelong learners.

You’ll help shape the future of children in our care by taking full ownership of the centre’s operation, documentation and program delivery while building great relationships with our families and the wider community.

**What you’ll bring**

To thrive and succeed in this role, you will have:

- A Bachelor's Degree in Early Childhood or equivalent (recognised by ACECQA as an early childhood teaching qualification) or a Bachelor of Primary Teaching with an approved diploma-level qualification.
- First Aid, CPR and Asthma and Anaphylaxis certification.
- Valid Blue Card and current Police Check (within three months or willing to obtain these).
- A collaborative mindset - when you join C&K, you join a village of good-hearted, talented people, so you can lean on them as they lean on you.

Your strong knowledge of the National Quality Framework and Standards and the Early Years Learning Framework will be crucial to your success.

**Why C&K?**

Every C&K career helps children belong and grow. We want the same for you.

Here are some things we hope you’ll love about working with us:

- **For Children.**

Joining C&K means impacting a child’s life journey for the time they spend with us and long after they leave. By nurturing a love of learning in our play-based environments, you’re doing something that truly matters - for now and for life.
- **For You.**

So much of what we do depends on you. We’ll set you up for success with a range of benefits, programs and opportunities to help you earn, be well and grow. And you’ll team up with people who value your dedication and care.
- **For Always.**

At C&K, you’ll help shape the future of the children in our care - and there’s so much more we can do. We’re investing and working hard to find better ways, and as an Assistant Director, you’ll be key to helping us set a new standard for our sector.

You’ll also enjoy plenty of other benefits:

- Be rewarded with a wage rate of $68510.88 - $70741.39 plus salary-sacrificing options.
- New to the world of teaching? Get the best start to your teaching career with our 12-month Beginning to Teach at C&K program.
- Live, work and be well with our Employee Assistance Program for you and your family, plus health insurance discounts through Bupa.
- Find a healthy work-life balance with parental leave, return-to-work support, and family-friendly priority access to C&K childcare centres.

**Join us and find a better way with C&K - for children, for you, for always.**
- All C&K employees are required to undergo background checks, including a police check._
