- Plan engaging, age-appropriate, inclusive sessions that are fun and safe.
- Manage and motivate your team to deliver high-quality care and play experiences.

- Ensure health and safety, safeguarding, and company procedures are followed with confidence.
What’s in it for you:
- No weekend work – hooray!
- Paid training and regular CPD opportunities.
- Discounts for your own children on wraparound care and holiday clubs.
- 24/7 wellbeing and mental health support through Health Assured.
- Recommend-a-friend rewards.

What we’re looking for:
- You may have worked as a Sports Coach, Teaching Assistant (TA), Playworker, Drama/Dance Instructor, NCS Leader, Scout Leader, Nursery Manager, SEN Support, Dinner Lady, Student, or even as a parent wanting a new career in childcare.
- Natural leaders who are confident, caring, and creative.
