Summary

Deputy Nursery Manager - Full Time - Hackney, E5 - £34,435 + amazing benefits

We put people before profit: work for a family of nurseries with heart

"You never feel alone at LEYF - there's always someone to turn to." - Selamawit, Nursery Manager

We're the London Early Years Foundation, or LEYF Nurseries for short; a family of 40 nurseries. Our people love working for us because we focus on the child and their family, and give them the best start in life.

LEYF is known for quality teachers - we give you strong in-house training and access to promotion. Our nurseries feel independent and community focused, and teams take care of each other. You join a family of nurseries with a great support network.

What's in it for you?

"I wanted more job satisfaction, so I came back to LEYF." - Sunita, Nursery Manager

Lots of training, promotions and a good salary for the sector
Generous pension at 7% from us (1% from you)
70% discount on childcare fees
Up to 35 days off a year, including 8 bank holidays, 3 days off between Christmas and New Year, and your birthday (pro-rated for part-time hours)
Sector-leading parental leave
Many other benefits that take care of you, including access to the wellbeing app, shopping discounts, annual conference and money for team celebrations

A bit about the role

"I have received a great deal of support, recognition and training, always having someone I can talk to." - Marta, Nursery Manager

We know you work in Early Years because you love helping children develop and learn. You are warm and keen to give children the best education to succeed in life.

You'll have lots of time creating fun activities for children, but you'll also support the Nursery Manager in the smooth running of the nursery. This will involve helping support the team, as well as helping with nursery finances, staffing, health and safety, partnering with parents, and ensuring the quality of the curriculum.

Every nursery shares LEYF's unique teaching model. But you will have the freedom to be creative to suit how the children learn best. Whether you hop on a train to the Science Museum, take a bus to make friends at a nearby LEYF nursery, or bake with your nursery chef, it's always about the children in our nurseries.

You will need:

The right to work in the UK
Team leadership and strong relationship building skill
Level 3 or above childcare qualification
Good ideas on how to maintain high quality and ratio bound environments
An ability to safeguard and protect children
To be reliable, positive and friendly

About the nursery

Rated Outstanding by Ofsted, Pembury Nursery and Pre-School provides Early Years education and care to children from birth to 5 years old.

We're in Lower Clapton, close to Hackney Downs and Hackney Central stations. We're a light and roomy nursery with two gardens – one for under 2s and one for pre-schoolers.
