Training & Profiles

The role of Assistant Director is varied, challenging and very rewarding; offering you the chance to gain broad business experience, while working in a fun environment to benefit children. No day is ever the same and you will never find yourself short of a challenge! Starting as an Assistant Director you will be in a team of three, either launching a new centre or running an established centre. The key to the success of each centre is down to the three managers: the Centre Director and two Assistant Directors. The full time team are graduates from leading universities, all sharing a passion for education and the desire to help children reach their full potential.

The Assistant Director role is comprised of many different areas, providing you with a lot of variety in your day. During weekdays the children come in from 3.30pm onwards, so the mornings are made up of the core business, marketing and administration functions, whilst in the evening your focus will shift onto the children and the parents.

We recognise that our strength as a company comes from our people. This is why we place a heavy emphasis on your career development through training from you first day. We provide a wealth of training and support to all of our staff. We are dedicated to the development of each and every employee. We recruit only the very best graduates and are committed to training each individual in a wide variety of educational and business skills.
