About the Role

As Deputy Manager, you will work closely with the Nursery Manager to support the day-to-day running, management, and development of the nursery.

We are looking for someone who is passionate about delivering outstanding early years education, building positive relationships with families, and creating environments where children can flourish through curiosity, exploration, and investigation.

Responsibilities of the Deputy Manager

Support the Nursery Manager in the effective day-to-day operation and development of the nursery.
Lead, motivate, and support staff to maintain consistently high standards of care and education.
Promote a positive, nurturing, and stimulating environment that supports every child's individual learning journey.
Role model best practice and support staff through coaching, mentoring, reflective practice, and professional development.
Assist with occupancy management, staffing levels, staff costs, and the effective use of nursery resources and equipment.
Support the administration and management of the nursery, including maintaining records using computerised management systems.
Build strong partnerships with parents, carers, local schools, children's centres, and other professional agencies.
Encourage effective two-way communication with families while always maintaining confidentiality.

Help create engaging, well-planned learning environments with open-ended resources that encourage curiosity, exploration, and independence.
Support staff in recording children's progress, planning next steps, and maintaining high-quality documentation.
Participate in staff meetings, room meetings, and company network meetings, contributing to the ongoing development of the nursery.
Ensure all safeguarding, health and safety, cleanliness, housekeeping, and hygiene standards are maintained.
Assist with opening and closing procedures and ensure company policies and procedures are followed consistently.
Contribute to the nursery's action plans, ethos, vision, and continuous improvement initiatives.
Keep up to date with current early years legislation, research, and best practice, sharing knowledge and ideas with the team.

What We're Looking For

The successful candidate will have:

A relevant Early Years qualification (Level 3 or above).
Previous experience in a senior childcare, room leader, third in charge, or leadership role.
A strong understanding of the EYFS, safeguarding, and current early years legislation.
Excellent communication, organisational, and leadership skills.
Experience supporting staff development and leading by example.
The ability to build positive relationships with children, families, colleagues, and external professionals.
A flexible, proactive, and positive approach to work.
A genuine passion for supporting children's learning, development, and wellbeing.
