Full job description

Job Title: Nursery Manager

“Children are at the heart of our warm, friendly and family-orientated setting.”
This is not just a line from our Ofsted report — it is the culture we live every day and are proud to protect.

We are seeking an experienced, values-led Nursery Manager who will confidently lead, nurture, and build on this ethos, ensuring children’s wellbeing, learning, and development remain central to all practice. The successful candidate will lead the nursery in line with the EYFS, work in genuine partnership with families, and support staff to consistently deliver high-quality care and education.

Our Values

We believe strong leadership is rooted in kindness, consistency, reflection, and putting children first. The successful candidate will share these values and understand that secure relationships with children, families, and staff are the foundation of high-quality early years practice.

If you are looking for a leadership role where you can truly get to know the children, families, and team — and where your values matter — we would love to hear from you.

Why Choose Us?

The opportunity to lead with purpose in a small, well-established 34-place nursery, where relationships genuinely matter
A nursery with over 30 years of serving the Littleborough community, proudly supporting three generations of families
A setting where children and families are truly at the centre of daily practice, not just policy
Caring, approachable, and supportive owners who value trust, collaboration, and professional judgement
A small, committed, and supportive team who know the children well and work closely together
A fabulous open garden and a strong emphasis on outdoor learning
Set within beautiful countryside, with regular walks and visits to Hollingworth Lake, canals, and local green spaces
Centrally located in Littleborough, with excellent access to trains, buses, and local amenities
Childcare discount for staff
Additional annual leave for management roles, recognising responsibility and leadership
Fully funded training and professional development, including mandatory training and courses linked to interests and progression
Use of Tapestry to support effective leadership, communication, and assessment
Branded workwear provided
DBS check fully paid for
A nursery that values staff wellbeing, stability, and long-term commitment

The Role in Practice

Lead by example to create and maintain a safe, nurturing, and stimulating environment where children and families feel secure, valued, and supported to thrive
Ensure children’s individual needs, interests, and wellbeing drive decisions at every level of practice
Build and sustain strong, respectful partnerships with families, encouraging open communication and meaningful involvement in children’s learning
Ensure the nursery consistently meets and exceeds EYFS statutory requirements and Ofsted standards, embedding them confidently into daily practice
Lead reflective practice and continuous improvement, using self-evaluation to strengthen outcomes for children
Maintain clear, accurate, and purposeful records, policies, and procedures, ensuring they are understood and followed in practice
Act as the Designated Safeguarding Lead (DSL), maintaining the highest standards of safeguarding, child protection, and welfare
Lead, mentor, and support staff to deliver high-quality, child-centred practice, supporting professional growth and confidence
Work alongside the owner to oversee recruitment, induction, supervision, and performance management, ensuring staff suitability and consistency
Foster a positive, professional, and inclusive team culture, where staff feel supported, valued, and accountable
Monitor and support the quality of teaching and learning, ensuring planning is responsive to children’s interests and developmental needs
Ensure health and safety is fully embedded into daily routines and understood by all staff

Requirements:

Minimum Level 3 Early Years Education and Childcare Qualification, or equivalent, and the ability to meet all standards set out in EYFS.
EYFS 2024 requirement: Level 2 Math’s qualification or must achieve one within 2 years of starting in the position.
Post-qualification experience in working in early education and childcare
IT skills and ability to effectively use Microsoft Office programmes, Nursery Management software, social media platforms and online portals
Ability to multi-task and establish rapport with staff, families, and external agencies.
You will be required to undertake an enhanced DBS check if your current certificate is not subscribed to the update service.

We welcome a broad range of applications, from highly experienced Managers, right through to Deputy Managers ready to take the next step up to Manager level
We positively encourage informal enquiries by email or phone, 7 days a week, daytime or evening
