Spring Thorpe Hamlet is 57-place nursery in the heart of Norwich for children ages 3-months to 5-years. We pride ourselves on the warm, 'home from home' environment we provide, where children are encouraged and supported to become independent learners. Our highly dedicated staff take time to get to know parents and children to ensure all of their individual care and learning needs are met: our philosophy is to actively encourage the involvement of parents so we can achieve our aim of ensuring children grow to be confident, happy and resilient.

We are looking for an enthusiastic and proactive Deputy Manager to assist in leading our team at Spring Thorpe Hamlet to provide a safe, caring, fun and stimulating environment.

What you will need:

  • Our successful candidate will have an enthusiastic and pro-active mindset with a positive attitude and have the ability to assist in leading a team to form strong and supportive relationships with the parents, children and the team. Our Job Description outlines the requirements of the role, but the 'must haves' are:

We can't wait to hear from you - stay safe and happy.
