OSCAR House Korokoro Supervisor of prgm & staff

We are a long established before and after school care programme organisation in Lower Hutt. We believe that great staff are essential to run a great programme and we have a fabulous, dedicated team. Our staff are fun to be with, provide a warm caring environment and genuinely want to be with our children/tamariki.

• We need an experienced, enthusiastic, energetic and reliable child care Supervisor, in charge of other staff, for our established Korokoro programme for School Years 0 - 8 tamariki.
• Experience working with groups of tamariki or working in the childcare/ education sector is required, and managing other staff would be a bonus. This is not a school leavers position and, given the time to travel vs part time hours, better suits someone who lives close/in the Lower Hutt area.
• We are looking for someone with an enjoyment of life who has empathy and rapport with this age group.
• Good communication skills, time management, written and organisational skills and a good dosing of common sense is required.
• Afternoons: 2:00/2:30pm start and 6pm finish Monday to Friday during school term time.
• Attendance at Supervisor Management Meetings, Team Meetings and training sessions is required.
• Short morning shift may be available at another site.
• Holiday work may be available.
• Hourly wage dependent on experience, skills and qualifications.
• First Aid Certificate an advantage but not essential.
• NZ driving license/own transport preferred.
• NZ residency or valid NZ work permit.
• OSCAR House is committed to the care and safety of tamariki in our care. We expect our staff to uphold this safeguarding at all times. A Police Vet Check is required of all successful applicants.
