Preschool Manager Vacancy - Where little moments matter… come lead a place where they truly count.
You’re already a great Manager, your service runs well, your team respects you, and families trust you.
So why move? Because you’re ready for more! You’re ready to shape a Preschool that feels like yours.
In sunny Whakatāne, where the pace slows just enough to enjoy a balanced lifestyle, we’re offering a rare opportunity: Autonomy to lead, grow, and inspire a preschool your way.
This isn’t a box-ticking management role.
This is your chance to:
* Lead with heart, not just policy
* Build a team culture you’re proud of
* Make real decisions without red tape
* Connect deeply with tamariki and whānau
* Create a preschool that reflects your passion and values
Imagine finishing your day knowing you’ve made space for moments like the one in this photo, calm, connected, and meaningful. That’s what we care about, and we’re looking for someone who does too.
What you’ll love about Whakatāne:
Beautiful beaches, warm weather, a strong sense of community, and a lifestyle that actually lets you enjoy your time outside of work.
What we’re looking for:
A competent, professional, passionate, experienced leader who wants ownership, not oversight. Someone who backs themselves, backs their team, and leads with purpose.
If you’ve been quietly thinking, “I could do more if I had the freedom”…we should talk. Contact Nicole 0279229864 or email [email protected]
