Council launches recruitment day to make careers in Early Years more accessible

Posted on Wednesday 23rd of August, 2023,

As part of its ongoing commitment to providing high quality early years education and care, Greater Shepparton City Council will host a recruitment day event to make the job application process easier, quicker, and more accessible for those interested in the rewarding career of early childhood education.

Set to take place on Wednesday 6 September 2023, the ‘Empowering Early Years’ recruitment day will offer an inclusive and relaxed environment for interested candidates to apply for roles through informal conversations with Council staff. The event will provide two session options, with one at 9.30am and another at 1.30pm, both held at the McIntosh Centre in Shepparton. Registrations are essential.

Greater Shepparton City Council Manager Early Years, Sally Rose, said Council were looking forward to chatting with potential employees at the event and assisting them with a fast-tracked recruitment process.

"Our Early Years Department plays a crucial role in nurturing Greater Shepparton’s next generation. These positions aren't just jobs, they're opportunities to make a real impact on children’s lives.”

“Whether you're a seasoned professional, a recent graduate, transitioning to retirement, or looking for a career change, we have a place for you in our Early Years Department. The event will offer an informal, pressure free and interactive environment,” she said.

“Our team is excited to meet potential candidates in person, to hear their stories and passions, and to match them with the right roles.” 

Council’s Early Childhood Educator, Caitlyn Menzie, said working in the Early Years sector was extremely rewarding and a role they thoroughly enjoyed.

“Every day we have the chance to make a difference in a child's life, to support their development, and to create a positive and nurturing environment for them to grow. I strongly encourage anyone interested in this field to attend the recruitment day and take your next step towards a fulfilling career,” Ms Menzie said.

There will be a variety of roles within Council’s Early Years Department on offer during the event, including positions at Long Day Care, three and four year old Kindergarten, and Occasional Care.

Council looks forward to the recruitment initiative bringing a fresh wave of dedicated and passionate individuals to its Early Years Department, and invites everyone interested to register for one of two sessions via their website.
