Flexible Creche/Bank Staff
We are looking to recruit flexible supply/crèche bank staff in the Thanet area.
Applicants must be qualified to a minimum of Level 2 in Early Years Childcare, although a Level 3+ qualification would be an advantage.
You may be asked to work in our crèches or cover staff in one of our nurseries so a degree of flexibility would be an advantage.
We are looking to recruit staff who ideally may be available to work between the hours of 8am and 6 pm Monday to Friday.
These are the opening hours of the Project as a whole, and whilst crèches mainly operate during school hours, there may be the requirement for cover staff in one of our nursery settings which could include some out of school hours working.
We would, however, attempt to offer work wherever possible according to your availability but you may on occasion be asked to work at short notice.
A full UK driving licence and use of a car for work with business insurance would be desirable.
There are no guaranteed hours, but we will have work available for the right candidate.
