Flexible, fun, and rewarding career progression
We are looking for a customer service driven Coordinator to come and lead our OSHC team at Walter's Road

Our Out-of-School-Hours Coordinators are the organisational gurus that make sure our OSHC services are safe, effective - and always fun.

Acting as both facilitator and role-model to young students from over 60 NSW schools, they design and maintain inclusive, welcoming and engaging spaces through our Before School, After School and Vacation Care services.

As a member of our OSHC family, you'll be responsible for the safety and wellbeing of developing young minds, while drawing on your leadership experience to support and guide our team of OSHC Educators.

You'll also work closely with the children, and their parents and schools, to ensure they're set up for growth and success.

This isn't your typical 9-5 role (they don't call it Out of School Hours for nothing) - and if you bring the dedication, focus and commitment, you'll enjoy the flexibility of a career in education, where you can build a schedule that works for you.

So if you're excited by the opportunity of a promising career creating meaningful opportunities for young people who need them, you'll almost certainly learn a thing or two yourself.

About your new role:

Manage an education team as a nominated supervisor

This is a fulltime position of 38 hours per week

About you:

You will design and deliver a safe, effective, and fun OSHC service following Y values
You will create a calendar of inclusive, exciting, and engaging program activities
You will be a rolemodel for our OSHC children, developing children's minds, bodies, and spirits outside of the classroom
You will become a trusted leader in the community, working closely with Ambarvale's families, school, and charity partners
You will manage a dynamic team of Educators, helping everyone's individual growth
You will be committed to safeguarding and hosting safe learning environments

To be successful in this role, you will have:

Experience being responsible for the safety and wellbeing of children
Experience leading others
Ability to follow safeguarding priorities
Availability to supervise Before School Care, After School Care and Vacation Care hours
Diploma or Certificate III in Early Childhood Education and Care (Desirable)
CHCPRT001 accreditation 'Identify and respond to children and young people at risk'

Childcare Services

Our Children Services Team are the passionate leaders giving developing young minds the opportunity to learn, grow and have fun outside of school.

Across 53 schools in NSW, our team of OSHC Educators and Coordinators provide before and after school (and school holiday) care that's dedicated to the safety and development of young children.

Every day, the team facilitate and run a range of valuable programs and activities that include sport, creative arts, cooking - and many more.

These roles work closely with children, parents and teachers alike, to provide meaningful opportunities for young people within a healthy, safe and inclusive environment.

If you're a driven, dedicated leader who brings energy and enthusiasm to everything you do, you'll find the support and flexibility to explore a promising career in childcare or education.
