Educational Leader & Room Leader | Kariong

Preschool Room Leader & Educational Leader | Kariong, NSW

Lead. Mentor. Inspire. Two leadership roles, one incredible prospect.

Are you a confident early childhood leader ready to shape both a preschool room and the educational heartbeat of a service? This well-established Kariong centre is looking for someone who thrives on mentoring, loves a great curriculum challenge, and wants real ownership over their professional impact.

Why This Role Stands Out

Dual leadership — combine Preschool Room Leader and Educational Leader responsibilities in one dynamic position

Genuine support — a leadership team invested in your growth, not just your output

Values-driven culture — join a high-quality, well-regarded service that walks the talk

Protected EL time — dedicated time off the floor to actually do your Educational Leader duties justice

What You'll Be Doing

You'll lead the daily rhythm of the preschool room while stepping into a broader mentoring role across the service — working hand-in-hand with the Centre Director to drive curriculum outcomes aligned with the EYLF and NQS. Think reflective practice conversations, school-readiness programming,



and building educators up to do their best work.

- Lead daily operations of the preschool room
- Drive educational programs and curriculum development service-wide
- Mentor and support educators through reflective practice
- Guide programming and documentation aligned with the EYLF
- Build genuine relationships with children, families, and educators
- Champion high-quality practice and compliance standards

What You'll Bring

- Diploma or Bachelor qualification in Early Childhood Education (ACECQA approved)
- Experience leading a preschool room
- Previous Educational Leader experience (a bonus, not a dealbreaker)
- Solid grasp of EYLF, NQS, and curriculum planning
- Confident, warm leadership and mentoring skills
- Genuine passion for high-quality early learning
- Full working rights in Australia (sorry, no student visas for this one)

On Offer

- Competitive salary package
- Real professional development and leadership support
- An experienced, Supportive management team
- A positive, collaborative team culture
