Join a Groundbreaking New Outdoor Learning Centre

Dunbar Private Nursery Ltd is excited to launch Dunbar Outdoor Learning, an innovative new Outdoor Learning Centre based in Dunbar, East Lothian.

Our vision is to create an inclusive outdoor learning community where children, families and educators can learn, explore and thrive through meaningful experiences in nature. Serving families across East Lothian and beyond, the centre will provide high-quality outdoor learning opportunities for children from birth to 12 years of age.

Alongside our children’s programmes, the centre will offer opportunities for adults to develop their skills and confidence in outdoor learning, including Forest School training and professional development opportunities. We also aim to support home-educating families by providing guidance, resources and outdoor learning experiences that enrich children’s learning through nature-based exploration.

Dunbar Outdoor Learning is being developed by Dunbar Private Nursery Ltd and represents the next exciting stage in our organisation’s growth. As the project develops and the centre officially launches, the organisation intends to transition its brand identity to Dunbar Outdoor Learning, reflecting our long-term vision and commitment to outdoor education, childcare and family learning.

The Role

We are seeking an experienced and passionate Deputy Manager to help bring this vision to life.

Working closely with the Centre Manager and Directors, you will play a key leadership role in establishing and developing this exciting new service. You will support the recruitment, development and wellbeing of the team while ensuring outstanding standards of childcare, learning and care.

Whilst the centre has a strong outdoor learning ethos, outdoor learning qualifications are not essential. We are looking for an experienced childcare professional with leadership and management experience, a strong understanding of child development and safeguarding, and a passion for supporting children and families to achieve their full potential.

This is a unique opportunity to influence the development of a pioneering service and help shape the future of outdoor learning within East Lothian.

Key Responsibilities

Support the Manager in the day-to-day operation and leadership of the Outdoor Learning Centre.

Lead, motivate and develop a team of practitioners to deliver high-quality childcare and learning experiences.

Support recruitment, induction, supervision and ongoing professional development of staff.

Create and maintain a safe, nurturing and inclusive environment for children and families.

Build positive relationships with children, parents, carers and external agencies.

Ensure compliance with safeguarding, child protection, health and safety and Care Inspectorate requirements.

Monitor children’s learning, development and wellbeing.

Support quality assurance, self-evaluation and continuous improvement planning.

Carry out staff supervisions and contribute to performance management processes.

Take responsibility for the service in the absence of the Manager.

Skills and Experience

The successful candidate will:

Hold a relevant childcare qualification that meets SSSC registration requirements.

Have previous experience in a leadership role within an early years, childcare or out-of-school care setting.

Demonstrate strong leadership, organisational and communication skills.

Have experience supporting and developing teams.

Possess excellent knowledge of child development, safeguarding and childcare legislation.

Have a good understanding of GIRFEC and child-centred practice.

Be passionate about innovative learning opportunities and supporting children to thrive.

What We Offer

· Competitive salary of £28,000–£30,000 per annum (pro rata).

· Company pension scheme.

· Funded training and professional development opportunities.

· Career progression and leadership development support.

· Uniform provided.

· Team-building and social events.

· A unique opportunity to help shape and develop an innovative new service from the very beginning.

How to Apply

Please send your CV and covering letter to:

Samantha Davidson

Email: [email protected]

We look forward to hearing from passionate childcare professionals who share our vision for creating inspiring outdoor learning experiences for children, families and communities.

Pay: £28,000.00-£30,000.00 per year

Benefits:

Company pension
On-site parking
Shuttle service provided
