2IC / Emerging Centre Director – Diploma or ECT Qualified Berowra, Sydney

About Us

We're a beautiful, family-owned 20-place preschool caring for children aged 3–6. With a genuine, hands-on approach to early education, our service feels like an extension of home for the children, families, and educators who are part of it.

We're growing, and we're looking for the right person to grow with us — someone who wants more than just a job, but a genuine career pathway into leadership.

About the Role

This is a unique prospect for either an exceptional Room Leader ready to step up, or an experienced 2IC looking for their pathway to Director. You'll start the role as 2IC, working both on and off the floor, with a clear, supported progression towards taking on the Director position as you grow into it.

You'll need to be someone who can wear a few different hats — leading with passion while still being hands-on in the room, and gradually shifting focus off the floor and into centre leadership as the role evolves.

What you'll be doing:
Working on the floor as an experienced educator and mentor to the team
Supporting the Provider with day-to-day operations and leadership tasks
Gradually taking on more off-the-floor responsibilities as you progress towards Director




Leading by example — modelling best-practice curriculum, documentation, and family engagement
Building solid relationships with children, families, and the educator team
Supporting compliance with the National Quality Framework and relevant regulations

What We're Looking For
Diploma in Early Childhood Education and Care, or Bachelor of Early Childhood Teaching (ECT)
Extensive industry experience, ideally in a Room Leader or 2IC capacity
Genuine leadership qualities, with the ambition and drive to progress into a Director role
Confidence wearing multiple hats — hands-on educator one moment, centre leader the next
Robust understanding of the EYLF and National Quality Standard
Excellent communication and relationship-building skills
Current Working with Children Check
Child Protection & Child Safety Training
First Aid, CPR, Anaphylaxis and Asthma certification

Why Join Us?
A genuine, supported pathway to Director — not just a title
Join a beautiful, family-owned 20-place preschool, not a corporate chain
Small, close-knit team and community feel
Beautiful Berowra location
Real investment in your professional growth

If this sounds like the perfect role for you, APPLY NOW!
