Melbourne, Australia ReadyTeacher Full time

**Early Childhood Educator (ECEC) Melbourne, Certificate III & Diploma Qualified**

**About us**

At ReadyTeacher, we understand the struggles education managers face when looking for quality relief educators on short notice. That's why we created ReadyTeacher - an easy-to-use platform where managers are able to log in, browse our selection of relief teachers, and make a booking instantly. We’re also the ultimate place for managers to find new staff for ongoing roles.

The ReadyTeacher platform connects teachers with quality Early Childhood Centres. We deliver short-term instant hires and attract new employees for centres seeking specialist educators.

ReadyTeacher is the first "agency" for ECEC to encourage its educators to become direct employees of the centres they attend through our 300-hour Employee Trial Period.

**Who we are looking for**

Ready teachers are positive, team-minded, qualified teachers who thrive on creating vibrant, inclusive learning environments and unforgettable experiences for international students. Ready teachers are organised and friendly professionals.

**You have**
- A Certificate III or Diploma in Early Childhood
- A valid WWCC and/or teacher registration
- First Aid Certificate (Preferable)
- A winning, professional and 'Can-Do' attitude
- A love of working with children and getting along
- A repertoire of fun games and activities
- Professional experience is not essential.

**You will**
- Create and manage your Profile on ReadyTeacher, including managing your availability on your calendar
- Arrive promptly, maintain a professional appearance, depart promptly and accurately complete all necessary paperwork, including the attendance register for each day of work.
- Ensure that children have a positive social and educational experience in your presence.

**What success looks like**

In the first month, you will receive a full onboarding from our team and get yourself class-ready. You will then accept your first bookings and start attending shifts at our centres. You will get into the groove of working the rooms, connecting with children and listening for feedback.

In your second month you will know the flow and expectations of the room and you will develop your own professional approach, and if needed receive guidance from our team. You will attend a number of our centres to facilitate positive learning experiences and have consistently positive and/or constructive feedback.

In the following months, you will be constantly requested by managers in the ReadyTeacher network and have established relationships with Educators, Children and Centre Managers.

**The team**

Weishan Hu graduated from Master of Education at Monash University specialising in Early Childhood Education. She has worked in different ECEC settings as a registered teacher, nominated supervisor as well as an Ed leader in the team. Weishan also worked in the ELICOS field as a academic coordinator and teacher to international students.

**The benefits**

At ReadyTeacher, we offer a unique opportunity to join our EdTech startup and be part of a grassroots team that is shaping and influencing the sector’s workforce. This is your chance to join a rapidly growing team and make a difference in the lives of many international students as you facilitate and support their learning.

We encourage teachers to find their forever home and get settled in, and we do this through our Employee Trial Period which is a huge hit for both our customers and teachers. We are a friendly team that values autonomy, and we support each other to make significant decisions and collectively make a real impact.

We believe that diversity is critical to our success. We will not discriminate based on race, religion, national origin, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, age, marital, veteran, or disability status. We do not hire English language teachers based on their native-speakerness.
