London, United Kingdom London Borough of Merton Full time

This is a new and exciting role to join Merton’s Early Years, Family Wellbeing and Early Help Division. We are advertising for a secondment / fixed term opportunity to lead on a DfE funded project to expand current wraparound care provision in Merton.

The government’s ambition is that by , all parents and carers of primary school-aged children who need it will be able to access term time childcare in their local area from 8am-6pm, so that parents can access employment and improve labour market participation.

To support this ambition, the government has provided start-up funding over two academic years to support local authorities to introduce or expand childcare provision on either side of the school day, which parents of primary school-aged children will be able to pay to access.

This new role will involve working in a collaborative manner with teams across the local authority, schools, families, childcare providers (including private providers, childminders, community and voluntary organisations and early years settings) to assess supply and demand and expand wraparound childcare provision that is accessible to children and families, including those with SEND.

We are looking for highly motivated, enthusiastic, and experienced project manager with excellent knowledge of the wraparound childcare sector which includes providing advice and guidance for setting up high quality provision, as well as implementing robust processes for allocating, monitoring and report on time limited grant funding.

We are proud of to serve the diverse communities of Merton and want our workforce to reflect this diversity, which we believe is beneficial for employees, the organisation and the communities we serve.

 f you would like further details about this role please contact Laura Byrnes, at laura.byrners@merton.gov.uk for a confidential conversation.

Interview to take place on Friday 14th June
