Nursery and Crèche Services Manager - £41,981 + Benefits - London W10 5XL

Want to lead a service that makes a real difference in children’s lives? Ready to take your next step in a supportive, community-focused organisation where your ideas matter?

We’re offering you the chance to shape the future of early years provision in North Kensington — a diverse, vibrant part of London with a strong sense of community.

The role
As our Nursery and Crèche Services Manager, you’ll do more than oversee daily operations — you’ll lead a team, influence strategy, and grow services that local families rely on. This is your opportunity to bring your ideas to life, build a strong team, and make sure every child gets the best possible start.

You’ll have the freedom to develop new activities, improve standards, and strengthen partnerships — all with the backing of a supportive senior team. You’ll also play a key role in promoting the service, managing budgets, and ensuring regulatory and learning goals are met.

What you’ll gain
• A real opportunity to shape and grow a vital community service
• The chance to lead your own team and help staff develop in their careers
• Support to improve and innovate – your ideas will be welcomed
• A permanent, full-time role
• Flexible working options, including job share
• The reward of seeing your work have a direct, positive impact on children and families

About us
We’re a charity based in North Kensington, working across 23 acres of community space. Our mission is to support local people through education, wellbeing, and enterprise. Early years services are a key part of what we do — helping children thrive and families feel supported.

What you’ll bring
You’ll be someone who’s confident leading a team, experienced in early years settings, and ready to take on a new challenge.

We’re looking for:
• A minimum Level 4 qualification in childcare
• At least two years’ experience managing a nursery
• A Level 3 Safeguarding qualification
• A collaborative working style and a real interest in community-based services
• Strong organisational skills and experience with Ofsted and budget management
• It’s a bonus if you know the local area or have experience working with diverse communities.

What’s next
If you're looking for a role where you can lead, grow and make a lasting impact — we’d love to hear from you.
Apply today and help shape the future for families in North Kensington.
