Nursery Room Leader
Stockwell, London | SW9 | £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.
Rated Good by Ofsted, this nursery is light and spacious, with separate rooms for different age groups and they also have a sensory room, a soft play room, and a large garden. The children enjoy different activities, from construction to science experiments, creating small world dolls’ houses and farms, yoga and gardening. The learning possibilities are endless!
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.
