Job Opportunities at the Early Years Centre

Here at the Early Years Centre, the happiness, safety and development of each child in our care is at the core of everything we do and there is nothing better than watching our children having fun, making friends and gaining confidence in their abilities and surroundings.

If you feel the same way, we are always looking for talented vocational individuals to join our team of dedicated childcare professionals.  We have vacancies for qualified level 3 practitioners and also have options for unqualified nursery assistants too. 

We can offer you a variety of working opportunities from full time permanent roles, part time permanent hours to suit your needs, or temporary fixed term placements (both full time and part time).

All of our full time staff work their contracted hours in four days and then benefit from one day off every week. What better chance to book those appointments you never find time to attend, catch up with all your chores, or just enjoying some well-deserved down time with a lie-in, going to the gym, reading a book and catching up with those programmes on your planner. 

Additionally, as a valued employee of the University of Southampton you will also enjoy many benefits such as enhanced pay scales and annual inflationary pay rises, extended paid annual leave entitlement, access to discounted campus coffee shops and cafes, together with membership of the staff rewards club including 10% discount in local shops and restaurants. 

If you are ready for a change and would like to hear more about what the Early Years Centre can offer, please email your CV (or a brief description of your work experience and qualifications) plus your contact details to: eycentre@soton.ac.uk.  One of our management team will then arrange a time to call you in the first instance for an informal chat.
