About the service

  • Providing leadership, mentorship, and guidance to our dedicated staff.
  • Effectively handling the center's financial requirements in line with budget guidelines.
  • Upholding consistent, high-quality standards for centre presentation and work practices.
  • Ensuring the delivery of high-quality early learning programs by our passionate educators.
  • Establishing and nurturing strong relationships with children, families, educators, the local business community, and all stakeholders.
  • Actively participating in attracting, converting, and retaining families through effective management of tours, enrolments, and orientation in collaboration with our Enrolments Team.

The non-negotiables

  • Minimum one years' experience mentoring a team as an Assistant Director.
  • A sound understanding and application of the Early Years Learning Framework.
  • Experience in overseeing and implementing a program based on children's needs and interests.
  • A strong understanding of compliance and of National Quality Standards (NQF).
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
  • Sound experience in supporting the staff management of a medium to large childcare service.
  • The ability to support and work collaboratively with your team, and assist and support the Centre Director in the general day-to-day running of the service.
  • The ability to manage and lead community engagement.

If this sounds like your next career move, or if you are exploring your career and do not know if this is right for you, then apply, and we can discuss it further.

At Early Years Talent, we connect passionate early childhood educators, teachers and childcare staff with job opportunities. Our clients range from boutique exceeding early learning centres, long day cares to community-managed not-for-profits and kindergartens/preschools.
