Centre Manager | Exceeding-rated | $110-$140K

Confidential • Cheltenham, Victoria • Posted May 27, 2026

About the Role

A rare opportunity to lead an Exceeding-rated, 60-place early learning service with a full waitlist, a stable long-term team and deep community roots.

This is more than a leadership role. It is an opportunity to take custodianship of a service where children are seen as capable contributors, educators are valued thinkers, and relationships sit at the heart of everyday practice.

Importantly, this is not a turnaround role or a service in crisis. The foundations are strong, occupancy is secure and the existing team brings substantial experience and stability.
