Job description

Qualified EYP’s/Senior Practitioners ready to take the next step!

Qualified EYP’s/Senior Practitioners ready to take the next step!

Sunny Days Children’s Nursery is looking for experienced Early Years Practitioners, Room Leaders and people who feel ready to take the next step in their career.

We have opportunities across our nursery settings for people who care about doing the job well, enjoy being part of a strong team and would like the chance to grow into more senior responsibilities.

You might already be a Room Leader looking for a fresh start.

You might be an experienced Level 3 practitioner who has found yourself becoming the person others turn to in the room, even though you have never had the title.

Or you might know you are ready for more responsibility but need the right support and opportunity to take that next step.

We are interested in all three.

At Sunny Days, we want our senior people to do more than keep a room running. We want them to understand what good early years practice looks like, support and develop the people around them, build strong relationships with families and take pride in the standards of their nursery.

For the right person, we provide a clear development route, regular support from experienced leaders, and coaching and leadership development with an external early years coach who already works closely with our team.

This is something we invest in because we want people to feel supported as they grow into leadership, rather than being given a new title and expected to work everything out for themselves.

You do not need to arrive as the finished article.

We are looking for people who are:

• Level 3 qualified or above
• experienced in an early years setting
• reliable and organised
• confident working as part of a team
• interested in supporting and developing other people
• willing to learn and open to feedback
• ambitious about their own career in early years

For candidates who already have leadership experience, there are opportunities to take on senior responsibilities from the outset.

For experienced practitioners who are ready to develop, we are equally interested in talking to you.

We offer:

• competitive pay, based on experience and responsibility
• opportunities for progression into Room Leader, Deputy and management roles
• structured training and leadership development
• external coaching and leadership training
• regular support from our nursery managers and senior leadership team
• a long-established, independent nursery company
• a workplace where good ideas, high standards and taking responsibility are valued.

We currently have opportunities across our Calne, Lyneham and Fynamore settings.

If you are happy where you are but have started wondering what your next step might look like, we would still be very pleased to hear from you.

Sunny Days Children's Nursery is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children. Successful applicants will be subject to appropriate safer recruitment checks, including an enhanced DBS check.
