Lead the fun. Inspire children. Love what you do.
Are you a passionate childcare professional looking to take the next step into a leadership role?
At Junior Adventures Group (JAG), we're looking for an enthusiastic Childcare Setting Manager to lead our Breakfast & After School Club at St Paul's C of E Junior School.
This is a fantastic opportunity to manage a thriving wraparound care provision where every day is different. You'll lead a small team, build strong relationships with children, families and the school, and create a safe, welcoming environment where children aged 4–11 can play, learn and thrive.
Whether it's organising exciting sports, arts and crafts, team games, outdoor adventures or imaginative play, you'll help make every session memorable.
This is a split-shift role, working mornings and afternoons with a break in between—ideal for those looking for a role that fits around family life or other commitments. There are also opportunities to increase your hours by working in our Holiday Clubs and Lunchtime Clubs.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
