Job Introduction

Job Title: Development Manager
Starting Salary: £53,806 progressing to £59,497 per annum - pay award pending
Hours: 37 hours per week
Location: Stevenage
Contract Type: Permanent
Directorate: Children's Services

About the team

This is an excellent opportunity to become part of the Early Years Service within Children’s Services, where you will play a vital role in ensuring there is sufficient, sustainable, and high-quality childcare provision throughout Hertfordshire. The service collaborates closely with schools, early years providers, partners, and colleagues across the council to support the effective delivery of early education and childcare entitlements for Hertfordshire’s residents.

About the role

In this full-time role, you will provide leadership for childcare sufficiency, shaping how high quality early education and childcare provision meets the needs of children and families across the local area. Using data, insight and partnership working, you will influence the long term development and sustainability of the childcare market, ensuring equitable access to entitlements and support for vulnerable families.

Childcare sufficiency is central to the Best Start in Life programme. In this role, you will help create the conditions for children to thrive in their earliest years by supporting access to high-quality provision. This will contribute directly to improving school readiness, narrowing inequalities and raising attainment by the end of the reception year.

Working with colleagues across the local authority and external partners, you will help develop a coherent and resilient early years system that aligns childcare sufficiency with wider priorities for children, families and communities.

A key part of the role will be shaping the wider system that supports early years provision. This includes leading the annual review and update of the early years handbook and provider agreement, which set out how early education and childcare entitlements are delivered locally and how providers meet their responsibilities. You will also produce the annual Childcare Sufficiency Report, setting out available childcare provision and how it responds to local parental demand.

You will provide a senior professional voice for early education and childcare, offering leadership on current and emerging issues and supporting a confident, skilled and sustainable sector. Through effective leadership and team development, you will strengthen the service’s capacity to respond to future demand and system change.

Essential:

Recent/relevant experience of working with the early years sector and/or within a local authority early years team.
Experience of working with and influencing a wide range of stakeholders, including schools, early years providers and partner organisations.
Knowledge of the early years and childcare sector and the factors that influence quality, sustainability, recruitment and retention.
Knowledge and experience of safeguarding policies and procedures.
Strong interpersonal and communication skills, with the ability to present complex information clearly in writing and verbally to different audiences.
Ability to analyse data (quantitative and qualitative), identify gaps in provision, and make sound, timely decisions to deliver change.
Experience of developing and delivering briefings (in person and virtual), reports and documents to support decision-making and stakeholder engagement.
Experience of managing staff and undertaking performance reviews.
Full driving licence and ability to travel across the county, working flexibly to meet service and stakeholder needs.

Desirable

Understanding of local authority regulations, including political processes.

We welcome applications from candidates who currently reside in the UK with established proof of right to work documentation. We are not able to offer sponsorship at this time for this role.
