Nursery Assistant - Furzefield

Start date: 02 November 2026

Weekly Hours: 32.5 hours, term time only

Working Pattern: Monday - Friday 11:00 - 18:00 with 30 minute unpaid break

Are you a brilliant and enthusiastic Nursery Assistant looking for a fresh, rewarding challenge? We’re on the hunt for a passionate, hands-on professional to join our vibrant early years team at Furzefield and make a real difference. If you have a knack for bringing out the best in our youngest learners and want to work in an environment that truly values its staff, we want to hear from you.

The Role

You will be getting hands-on with the children, helping them master everything from their first phonics sounds to counting and early maths, whilst providing top-notch, reliable support to the nursery room leaders. Every day will be different, from leading small group play interventions to supporting children with their daily routines, ensuring that every child has the chance to thrive and succeed in a safe, nurturing environment.

What You Will Bring

  • A proven track record of working effectively with children in an early years educational setting.
  • Excellent communication skills, endless patience, and a positive, can-do attitude.
  • Relevant early years qualifications are desirable but not essential (e.g., NVQ Level 2 in Early Years Education or Childcare).
  • A deep commitment to keeping children safe and promoting their welfare in all aspects of your work.

  • We offer opportunities to work across different academies within the Trust, and a commitment to promotion opportunities, encouraging ‘home grown’ talent.
  • Extensive benefits and a comprehensive health and wellbeing package for all staff.
  • Discounted staff rates for wraparound care.

  • Undergo appropriate overseas criminal records checks if you have lived or worked outside the UK.
  • Provide original certificates to verify your professional qualifications.
  • Supply at least two satisfactory references, covering at least the last two years and explaining any gaps in employment.
  • Please note that as part of our rigorous due diligence, we will carry out online searches—including social media footprint checks—on all shortlisted candidates to verify suitability to work with children.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
