Coach, develop and performance manage operational leaders, and build talent pipelines to support growth and succession

Financial, Rostering and Resource Management

Embed child-safe policies and practice in daily operations, in line with the National Principles for Child Safe Organisations
Actively promote child wellbeing and ensure the supervision framework is upheld at all times

What you'll bring to the table

Substantial senior childcare leadership experience in Childcare as an Area Manager, Regional Manager, General Manager or comparable multi-site early childhood operations role
Demonstrated success leading large, diverse teams and building high-performance cultures aligned with organisational strategy and values
Proven experience developing and managing company-wide systems, processes, budgets, operational frameworks and governance reporting
Strong commercial understanding of a growing childcare business, including occupancy, labour management, budgeting, enrolment performance and centre profitability
Demonstrated ability to embed regulatory compliance, quality assurance, internal audit and incident-management systems
