Early Years Trainer
 
Salary: £29,064
Location: Hybrid working, ideal candidate will be based in either – Swindon, Reading, or Oxford / M4 Corridor (Reading, Oxford, Bristol travel)
Permanent | Full Time
 
Are you passionate about developing the next generation of Early Years practitioners? Do you have strong nursery leadership experience and the drive to support learners across high-quality early years settings? If so, this Early Years Trainer role could be the perfect next step in your career.
 
We are working with a respected training provider who partners with a range of large nursery groups and established early years settings. They are now looking for a committed and resilient Early Years professional to join their growing training team.
 
The Role
As an Early Years Trainer, you will deliver engaging, high-quality teaching to learners across Level 2, Level 3 and (desirably) Level 5 Early Years qualifications. You’ll support learners throughout their journey, helping them build confidence, develop best practice, and succeed within their childcare careers.
 
This role covers the M4 corridor, with most learners based in Reading and Oxford, and occasional travel to Bristol, the South East and the South Coast, particularly in the first year (not daily).
 
Key Responsibilities

• Deliver Early Years training across Levels 2 and 3 (Level 5 desirable).
• Provide ongoing coaching, support, and progress reviews to learners.
• Work closely with a variety of early years providers to ensure excellent learner experience.
• Travel to learner settings across the M4 corridor (Swindon to Reading/Oxford).
• Maintain accurate documentation, learner portfolios, and achieve internal KPIs.

 
About You
We are looking for someone who is:

• Resilient, proactive and ready for a challenge
• Keen to learn, adaptable, and comfortable working independently
• Experienced in Early Years leadership – ideally a Deputy Nursery Manager or Nursery Manager
• Open to strong Room Leaders, depending on the size of the room/team they’ve managed
• Passionate about developing others and raising practice standards in Early Years settings

Level 5 delivery experience is desirable but not essential – full support and development will be provided.
 
Why This Role?

• Join a supportive organisation that values work-life balance and learner experience.
• Make a meaningful impact on Early Years practitioners across well-known nursery groups and early years providers.
• Opportunity to develop your own skills, including progression into Level 5 delivery.
• Ideal for a nursery leader seeking a new challenge or a step away from day-to-day nursery operations.

If you’re looking for a role where you can inspire, coach and develop Early Years professionals, while progressing your own career, we’d love to hear from you.
