HOPS

 Mid Suffolk HOPS operate a Saturday club and Summer holidays club in Mid Suffolk for children and young people with high level additional needs.  Our childcare is Ofsted registered and offers a wide choice of high quality learning, arts, sports and play opportunities.

We are looking for an experienced childcare professional to take on the day to day deputy management at  our successful Saturday Club and Summer holidays scheme. As a Leader you will be responsible for ensuring a high standard of care, education and development for children, meeting Ofsted and HOPS standards at all times.

We are looking for a strong leader with previous experience managing staff in a childcare environment, ideally with experience of working with children and young people with additional needs, with a minimum Level 3 qualification in Playwork (or equivalent recognised childcare qualification).
