Manager - Beehive Pre-School Playgroup

Beehive Pre-School Playgroup is seeking an experienced manager to join our Pre-school.

The manager would be employed 3 days a week. They would work alongside the senior manager on Wednesdays, and for the remaining 2 days Thursdays and Fridays, when the senior manager is absent, would be the named manager with Ofsted.

As this is a job share, this position would be ideal for a candidate in their first managerial post after having experience as a deputy or room leader.

The 2 managers will work closely together giving support to each other in their areas of expertise and the managers are also supported by the office manager who leads on financial and administrative tasks, allowing the managers to focus on the playroom and the daily running of the Pre-School.

As a team, we're committed to providing the highest quality early years education and care.

The ideal candidate must be professional, have exceptional interpersonal skills and be able to bring their own competencies and experience to develop outstanding practice.

You must be passionate about Early Years and have the ability to motivate and lead a team in the senior manager’s absence, whilst supporting and encouraging practitioners’ ideas.

As we're a charity, you'll report to the Chair of Trustees who has overall responsibility for decision-making.
