About the role
OOSH Coordinator (Diploma Qual)
If you’re a Diploma-qualified educator who enjoys leading a team, building great programs, and making a real impact in a community then this is a rare chance to step into a Coordinator role with genuine purpose.
This not-for-profit service is ready to re-open and grow their OOSH program and they’re looking for a confident, capable Coordinator to bring it to life.
Importantly, if you’re looking for more hours, the service can combine OOSH with additional hours in the preschool (ELC) to create a full-time role for the right person.
Why you’ll love it here
Note: Prior “OOSH Coordinator” title experience is not essential — this can suit a strong Diploma educator ready for their next step (ideally ~2 years post-Diploma experience).
Remuneration & conditions
This role is paid under the Children’s Services Award. Final rate will reflect your experience, leadership capability and impact within the stated range.
Apply now or contact Nicki on nicki@hinchen.com.au or 0458001260 for a confidential conversation.
