Nursery Practitioner

Early Years Practitioner (all age groups)

Red Bus works very hard to be an exceptional place for children and also an exceptional place for staff to work. We value our staff very much and this means that they tend to stay with us for a long time, developing their careers, growing their own families and generally growing with us.

Our Downend setting is an amazing place. It is situated within beautiful grounds in a lovely area. We really take care of our environments too, we are very well resourced and our parents tell us what an amazing place Red Bus is for their children.

We are looking for an Early Years Practitioner in each of our age groups as our numbers are growing fast:
Nursery (up to 2 years)

Kindergarten (2-3 years)

Pre-School (3-5 years)

Our Practitioners strive to be great at their job, whether they have just qualified, qualified some time ago and want to get back into childcare, or if they have solid experience already as a Practitioner. Supported in their age group by their own room management team, our teams work very closely together, supporting each other, feeling valued and working in very positive and happy teams.

- an excellent salary and benefits package (including up to 36 days holiday per year which includes paid time off over Christmas, social events, team bonding, staff recognition scheme, sick pay scheme, and much more... );
- a passionate organisation who work hard to do everything well;
