Sydney, New South Wales, Australia Gumnut Gardens Full time $104,000 - $130,878 per year

Are you a passionate Early Childhood Educator ready to take the next step in your leadership journey? We're seeking a dedicated and experienced Nominated Supervisor to join our newly established Five Dock centre—an intimate, purposefully designed environment that feels like a home away from home supporting up to 25 children in a nurturing, community-focused environment.

Located beside the Five Dock Library and a short stroll from waterfront parklands, our centre is designed to feel like a home away from home. With nature walks, local excursions, and a vibrant neighbourhood at our doorstep, we offer children daily inspiration and connection to their world.

About the Role

This full-time leadership opportunity is ideal for educators with a Diploma or ACECQA-approved equivalent qualification. We welcome applicants with experience in room or educational leadership—or those aspiring to grow into future management roles. As Nominated Supervisor, you'll play a pivotal role in shaping our play-based, nature-inspired curriculum and fostering a culture of ethical care, transparency, and professional excellence.

What We're Looking For

  • Diploma or ECT-level qualification (ACECQA-approved)
  • Valid NSW Employee Working with Children Check
  • Proven leadership capability or strong potential to lead
  • Commitment to lifelong learning and reflective practice
  • Collaborative, team-focused mindset
  • Strong pedagogical knowledge and awareness
  • Excellent communication with children, families, and colleagues
  • Reliability, accountability, and a values-driven approach

What We Offer

  • Competitive above-award salary
  • Ongoing mentorship and professional development
  • Supportive, inclusive workplace culture
  • Access to Employee Assistance Program (EAP)
  • Convenient access to public transport and local shops

This is a full-time position for an experienced and passionate educator. Please note: this role is not suitable for educators on student visas. Applicants must hold permanent residency or a valid working visa for Australia.

If you're excited to lead with purpose and help shape a centre that places children's wellbeing and learning at its heart, we'd love to hear from you.
