The Role:
If you're seeking a job with better work-life balance, prefer to work mornings, and love bringing fun and energy into everything you do, this could be the role for you!
We are looking for a fun, energetic and enthusiastic Part-Time Facilitator who genuinely enjoys engaging with young children and can bring our programs to life in a warm, positive and memorable way.
The role will work within preschools and kindergartens across:
North / North West / West – Preferred location around Caroline Springs and surrounding suburbs.
Please only apply if you currently live in or close to this region. We are seeking someone who is locally based, rather than someone travelling from another part of Melbourne or Victoria.
Please note: this is not a childcare educator role within a single centre. Instead, you'll travel to a variety of preschools and kindergartens to deliver fun, engaging and curriculum-aligned incursions as part of the Life Education Victoria program, before moving on to your next service.
The part-time role will initially commence with 2 half days per week, with the opportunity to grow. We are looking for someone who is motivated to build on the amazing work our team has already done in the region, develop strong relationships with local services, and help secure additional bookings over time.
If you're confident, energetic, reliable and love making learning fun, we'd love to hear from you.
