Apply your Early Years experience and knowledge, and management skills, to an Outstanding college.

Weston College is seeking to appoint a progressive and inspirational subject area manager to lead a team of academic staff in the successful delivery and development of a high-quality, learner-centred Early Years provision.

This is an exciting opportunity for someone to fully embrace the 'can do' culture and positive ethos of the College, and who is passionate about learning and committed to supporting all learners to realise their potential and ambitions within the Early Years sector.

As the ideal candidate, you will be learner-focused and committed to ensuring that learners have an outstanding learning experience, achieve their full potential, and make progress.

Furthermore, the College is an Investors in People 'Champion' and has been awarded 'Gold' by Investors in People, which demonstrates Weston College's commitment to invest in our staff to improve performance.
