This is an exciting opportunity for an ambitious Early Years professional ready to take the next step in leadership within a supportive, forward-thinking organisation that truly values its team.

The Opportunity

As Deputy Manager, you will play a key role in supporting the Nursery Manager with the smooth day-to-day running of the setting. You’ll help lead and motivate the team, ensure exceptional standards of care and education, and create a safe, engaging environment where children can thrive.

  * Have previous experience in a senior practitioner, room leader or deputy role

  * Demonstrate strong knowledge of EYFS, safeguarding and compliance

  * Be confident leading a team and supporting professional development

  * Be enthusiastic, organised and child-focused

This role would suit someone ready to step up into a Deputy position or an existing Deputy looking for a fresh opportunity within a growing organisation.

  * £200 per month employee referral bonus scheme

  * Additional paid leave including birthday and wellbeing days

And more — because feeling valued at work matters.
