An established early childhood education provider is seeking an exceptional Centre Director for a service in the Campbelltown area.

n

The opportunity

n

Great Centre Directors do much more than manage rosters, budgets and compliance.

n

They create the environment in which everything else succeeds.

n





You'll have the opportunity to lead your centre with your own style, establish clear expectations, develop your leadership team and create a workplace where great educators want to stay.

n

You'll be trusted to make decisions and take ownership, while having senior leaders available when you need advice, resources or support.

n

Your focus will include:

n

n
- Building an engaged, positive and high-performing team culture
n
- Coaching, developing and retaining great educators and emerging leaders
n
- Leading the day-to-day operation and performance of the centre
n
- Maintaining excellent standards across quality, compliance and child safety
n
- Driving occupancy and strengthening relationships with local families
n
- Managing staffing, budgets and overall centre performance
n
- Supporting the delivery of high-quality educational programs
n
- Building genuine relationships with families and the local community
n
- Identifying opportunities and making improvements that move the centre forward
n

n

Who we're looking for

n

We're not simply looking for someone who has held the title of Centre Director.

n

We're looking for someone who can lead.

n

You'll ideally bring:

n

n




- Significant leadership experience within early childhood education and care
n
- A Diploma or Degree in Early Childhood Education and Care, or an appropriate equivalent qualification
n
- Strong knowledge of the National Quality Framework and relevant regulations
n
- Confidence managing people, performance, occupancy and centre operations
n
- Commercial awareness and the ability to understand the numbers behind a successful centre
n
- Strong communication and relationship-building skills
n
- The confidence to make decisions and take ownership
n
- A leadership style that brings people with you
n
- A genuine commitment to delivering exceptional outcomes for children and families
n

n

A leadership team that will back you

n

One of the biggest differences in this opportunity is the support around you.

n

You won't be expected to solve every problem alone.

n

You'll have access to an experienced leadership team who can provide guidance, resources and support, while still giving you the space to lead your centre.

n

We want a Centre Director who has ideas, challenges the status quo and takes pride in building something exceptional.

n

Ready for something bigger?

n

If you're a strong Centre Director who feels you've outgrown your current opportunity, or you're looking for an organisation prepared to genuinely recognise and reward outstanding leadership, we'd like to hear from you.

n

This is an opportunity to lead with autonomy, build a team you're proud of and be rewarded for the results you create.
