Overview
Join Our Fun Club team as Second in Charge
Are you passionate about working with children and looking for a leadership role?
Big Fat Smile's Fun Clubs are seeking dedicated and enthusiastic individuals to join our team as the Second in Charge.
Position: Second in Charge (2IC)
Locations: Bulli or Albion Park
Employment Type: Permanent, Part-Time (30 hours/week, Monday - Friday)
A supportive and safe workplace
When the going gets tough (as it sometimes does in this sector), you'll find teammates and leaders that have your back.
There's a real in-it-together feeling here thanks to a safe and supportive environment, and well-established policies and processes that outline exactly what's expected and needed in any situation.
Everyone's in it together, making it easier for you to thrive.
We treasure the expertise of our educators
As Second In Charge you will be providing quality care and education to school-aged children while incorporating your ideas and expertise to create a fun-filled environment.
You will have the ability to create respectful and long-lasting relationships with parents and carers, as well as your fellow educators.
You will plan, deliver and reflect on programs that aren't just compliant—but exciting, inclusive, and filled with moments that matter.
On top of this, you'll support the daily running of the service by bringing a calm and capable vibe to the service.
This is a permanent opportunity to work during Before and After School Care as well as Vacation Care, Monday to Friday located in Bulli or Albion Park
What you need to succeed
A cleared valid for paid work, Working With Children Check (WWCC)
Diploma of Children's Services or related qualification (desirable)
Strong understanding of the NQF, My Time Our Place, and what "quality" really looks like in OSHC
You're ready and willing to be the Educational Leader - championing quality programming, mentoring your team, and always striving for better.
You meet the requirements to be a Responsible Person, or you are keen to get there and take that responsibility seriously.
And if you're up for it you're keen to grow even more!
Maybe even dive into further study like a Cert IV in School Age Education and Care, so you can truly rock your 5 to 12 child development knowledge and take your OSHC game to the next level!
There are lots of reasons why a role with us is rewarding
You will feel supported by a Total Well-being Platform that gives you access to self-assessments, articles, toolkits, podcasts, perks and savings, and other resources.
We are proud to be part of the multi-employer bargaining process.
Join us to experience the rewards of up to a 15% pay increase over the next two years.
You will have the financial peace of mind with 60% discount on out-of-pocket fees for any of our early learning and care and out of school hours care services.
You can save money with our Benefits Platform with meaningful discounts from over 500 retailers on everyday purchases, including groceries, cinema tickets, clothing, homewares, tech, gym membership and more.
You can focus on what matters most because you have support from head office specialists and expertise, such as inclusion professionals and pedagogy and practice
Why join us?
Because we don't just run an OSHC—we create a place where children can truly belong, explore, and thrive.
You'll be joining a passionate team that values connection, creativity, and support.
We'll back you with professional development, mentoring, and the space to grow.
