Full Job Description

Centre Director | Lead with Heart, Purpose & Impact
Harmony Early Education | East Brisbane
Lead a Centre. Shape a Culture. Make a Lasting Impact.

Are you a leader who brings people together someone who builds strong teams, shapes culture, and leads with both courage and heart?

At Harmony Early Education East Brisbane, we are seeking a Centre Director who is not only operationally capable but deeply understands that great leadership shapes everything, the culture, the quality, the relationships, and every child’s first experience of belonging.

This is a rare opportunity to step into a leadership role where your influence will be felt every day, not only in the running of the centre, but in the experiences of children, families, and educators.

You will be joining a values-led organisation that trusts its leaders, empowers decision-making, and provides genuine support so you can focus on what matters most: people, culture, and quality early education.

Be the Heart of Our Service

As Centre Director, you are more than a manager.

You are the steady anchor, the culturekeeper, and the leader who sets the tone for excellence every day. You will lead with:

Purpose – keeping children at the centre of every decision
Warmth – building trust, connection and genuine relationships
Courage – holding standards and navigating challenges with clarity and integrity
Vision – driving quality, growth and continuous improvement

At Harmony, leadership is trusted, supported and expected to make a real difference.

Our leaders are valued, supported and empowered through:

A noncontact Centre Leadership Team – creating real capacity to lead, set standards and drive outcomes
Dedicated Quality Managers – partnering with Centre Directors to strengthen learning environments and intentionally shape curriculum and practice
Leadership support and coaching – providing the structure and guidance leaders need to thrive
Strong operational and people support – so Centre Directors can focus on leadership, quality and growth, not just daytoday problem solving
Quarterly offsite leadership forums and bimonthly development sessions – protected time for reflection, connection and meaningful growth
Harmony Academy – leadership development that is practical, relevant and embedded in real centre challenges
A culture of high trust, clear expectations and shared accountability
Above award wages – recognising commitment, stability and longterm leadership
75% childcare fee discount – supporting working parents

Our Commitment to Child & Cultural Safety

At Harmony, child and cultural safety are embedded in everything we do.

As Centre Director, you will champion safe, inclusive and respectful environments where every child and educator feels seen, safe and valued. You will lead a team that upholds the highest standards through strong governance, transparent processes, continuous learning, and meaningful partnerships with families and community.

Protecting every child. Honouring every culture. Every day.

Your Impact as Centre Director

In this role, you will:

Build and nurture a highperforming, committed team
Strengthen relationships with children, families and community
Ensure safe, highquality environments and practices
Lead curriculum excellence and reflective practice
Drive occupancy growth and strong financial stewardship
Foster a culture of wellbeing, collaboration and accountability
Embed Harmony’s values and childsafe commitment into daily practice

You will have genuine influence over your centre’s culture, team and growth, with the autonomy to lead, supported to succeed.

About You

You are a leader people naturally gravitate toward, steady, thoughtful, and valuesdriven with the confidence to hold standards and make decisions.

You bring:

Proven experience leading an early learning service
A Diploma or Degree in Early Childhood Education
Strong knowledge of the NQS, NQF and quality practice
Kind, courageous leadership that builds trust and capability
A deep commitment to child and cultural safety
Strong communication, organisation and relationship skills

You are comfortable balancing heart and accountability, people and performance.
