Nursery Room Leader

South Bermondsey, London | SE16 | £35,012 | Full-Time, 40 hours per week

Love Childcare Recruitment is hiring a Nursery Room Leader to join one of London's leading nursery and childcare providers, who operate 40+ nurseries across the capital. Every nursery is rated Ofsted Outstanding or Good.

About the role

As a Nursery Room Leader, you'll lead a room team, deliver the EYFS framework, and build strong relationships with children and parents within a nursery group recognised for their outstanding practice and a genuine social-impact mission across London communities.

This is a bright, modern nursery, with separate rooms and gardens for different age groups where the experienced staff team plan each day with help from the children. There are lots of activities to choose from, including obstacle courses, cooking, gardening, modelling clay, painting and dialogic reading. Families can join in the fun too, with days dedicated to cultures from around the world.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

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.
