Our client is an award-winning day nursery group with a strong, long-standing reputation across South Liverpool. They're looking for an experienced Nursery Manager to take the lead at their Childwall setting, overseeing a team of 14 staff and around 50 children a day.

As Manager, you'll have real ownership of the day-to-day running of the setting, backed by a supportive area management team rather than left to figure it out alone.

- Lead recruitment, induction, supervision and performance management for a team of 14, making sure ratios and qualification requirements are always met.
- Monitor teaching, planning and assessment across the nursery, using self-evaluation and quality assurance to keep standards high.
- Oversee budgets, staffing, occupancy, funding claims and reporting to the nursery owners and area managers.
