Service Manager - Before and After School Care

At TASK, it's all about the kids and the team that supports them!

An exciting opportunity has become available at our Ourimbah Public School. We are recruiting a Service Manager. This is a newly created full‑time position, established as part of an organisational restructure to provide consistent leadership across the service. At TASK we strive to create joyful, secure, and inclusive child safe environments where children flourish outside school hours. Our success starts with exceptional people, and we're committed to supporting you at every step.

This is a full‑time, child facing Service Manager role offering 38 hours per week, with dedicated administration time built in. There is currently no leader on site, so this is a chance to build something from the ground up. We're after someone who will make the service intentional, engaging and genuinely inspiring for the children who come through the door.

You will be responsible for:

• Leading and supporting a team of dedicated Educators at your service
• Overseeing the day-to-day operations and programming of before and after school care and vacation care
• Building strong relationships with families, the school and the wider community
• Ensuring compliance with NQF standards and TASK policies
• Managing rostering, records and reporting
• Working closely with your Area Manager on the service's direction
• Creating a fun, inclusive, enriching and safe environment for children

Why you'll love this role:

• A brand new position, so you'll shape how the service runs
• A genuinely child facing role. You'll spend your time with the kids, not buried in a back office
• Make a real impact. Be there for the children, families and Educators who rely on you
• You'll always have someone in your corner. Your Area Manager will work with you, offering coaching and encouragement every step of the way
• Lead, inspire and grow. Build and mentor a passionate team in a nurturing and fun environment

What we're looking for:

You're an experienced leader who truly cares about making a difference. You have:

• Substantial leadership experience in a childcare setting, preferably OSHC
• Confidence in the end to end management of a service
• A Certificate III (or higher) in Children's Services, Education, or a related field is preferred
• A valid Working With Children Check (WWCC)
• Completion certificate for Foundations of Child Safety Training (GECCKO)
• First Aid (HLTAID012), CPR, and asthma and anaphylaxis training
• Current child protection training
• A commitment to putting child safety and families first
• Professional development and career growth. We'll help you take your career to the next level
• A strong, passionate team. You'll never feel like you're doing this alone
• A fun, rewarding role. Bring your creativity and make every day exciting

At TASK we are dedicated to promoting equal opportunities for our colleagues, regardless of gender, race, socio‑economic background, age, disability, sexual orientation, or national origin.
