Full job description

Take the Lead as Deputy Manager with iStep Learning

Are you a qualified and experienced early years professional with a passion for delivering exceptional care and education? iStep Learning is seeking a dedicated Deputy Manager to join our growing nursery team.

In this pivotal role, you’ll support the Nursery Manager in ensuring outstanding care for children aged 3 months to 5 years, and step in to oversee day-to-day operations when required. This is a fantastic opportunity for someone ready to progress into senior leadership within a supportive, rewarding environment.

We’re looking for a proactive, hands-on leader with strong knowledge of OFSTED guidelines (both statutory and non-statutory frameworks), a love for early years learning, and the enthusiasm to create a fun, nurturing space—whether it’s leading a bear hunt, singing songs, or getting creative with messy play!

Your Key Responsibilities

Operational Leadership: Support the Nursery Manager with the smooth running of the nursery, maintaining excellence in care and education.
Team Support: Lead, coach, and inspire a team of practitioners to create a collaborative and positive working environment.
Compliance & Safety: Ensure full adherence to OFSTED requirements, safeguarding protocols, and health & safety regulations.
Parent Partnerships: Build strong relationships with parents and carers, communicating regularly and responding to any concerns with professionalism.
Child Development: Help plan and deliver engaging, age-appropriate learning experiences tailored to each child’s needs.

This is your opportunity to take the next step in your early years career while making a real impact on children, families, and your team.

Why Join iStep Learning?

We’re proud to offer a fantastic range of benefits to support, reward, and recognise our amazing team. Here’s what you can enjoy as part of working with us:

Birthday Off – Celebrate your special day with a paid day off.
Staff Benefits Platform – Access exclusive discounts, wellbeing tools and lifestyle perks.
50% Off Childcare – Significant savings for your little ones.
Social Events – Regular team get-togethers and celebrations throughout the year.
Career Progression – A well-structured path to grow your career with clear development goals.
Training & Development – Continuous learning opportunities and support.
Wellbeing Benefits – Resources to support your mental, emotional and physical health.
Ofsted Outstanding Bonus – Recognising your role in delivering exceptional quality.
Long-Standing Awards – Celebrating commitment and service milestones.
Annual Salary Review – Regular review to ensure your pay reflects your contribution.

Job Type: Full-time, 41.25 hours per week.
