Room Leader - Diploma Qualified Educator

We are looking for a full-time Diploma Qualified Educator to join our team at Ellenbrook in the role of Room Leader.

The role: 

As Room Leader, you play a key role in meeting the needs of children by prioritising their safety and wellbeing, and ensuring our processes and curriculum are implemented in a consistent and professional way. You build strong relationships with families and listen to what is important to them. As Room Leader, you will be the "go-to" of the room and provide direction and support to other educators. As with all roles in childcare, this is a hands-on role, where every co-worker takes responsibility and shares required tasks – our educators' contribution is truly valued within our business and by our families. 

Your experience, attributes and qualifications will include: 

• You value “leading by example" and keep it simple, down-to-earth, and real

• Helping others is part of who you are - you have integrity and this is demonstrated in your actions and communication with co-workers and families

• Working in childcare can be mentally and physically demanding - you have an ability to calmly and confidently deal with multiple priorities, and if you are ever uncertain, you ask for guidance by your Centre Manager. We are a team and support each other. 

• You have experience working in childcare and hold a current Diploma of Early Childhood Education and Care

• You have an understanding of the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF) and National Quality Standards (NQS).

• Hold a current WWC and other relevant qualifications
