Centre Manager – Brand New White Gum Valley Early Learning Centre

Most Centre Manager roles ask you to fix what already exists. This one hands you a blank canvas.

This is your opportunity to build a service from the ground up, choose your team, shape the culture and set the standard for quality from day one. If you are a confident and people-focused leader who knows what “high performing” really looks like, this is the role that will define your career.

Located just minutes from Fremantle, our purpose-built centre has been thoughtfully designed to inspire connection, curiosity and joy. With recycled brickwork, natural timbers and light-filled spaces, every detail reflects our commitment to sustainability, community and authentic learning.

And unlike most Centre Manager roles, you will never lead alone. You will be supported by a Regional Manager, Operations Support Manager and an Assistant Manager and Educational Leader who are off the floor so you can focus on what matters most: people, quality and culture.

About White Gum Valley Early Learning

• Demonstrated ability to lead, mentor and inspire a high-performing team

• A proactive approach to culture, continuous improvement and compliance

• A genuine passion for early childhood education and community connection

We are looking for a Learning Support Education Assistant with relevant experience to join a large dynamic team of educators and support staff at Alta-1 College.

At Alta-1 we recognise that adverse life experiences can impact a student’s sense of self-worth, motivation and capacity for learning, making engagement in a mainstream school setting difficult. 

As an independent, co-educational CARE (Curriculum and Reengagement in Education) School, Alta-1 is a Christian organisation that works with students from years 7-12. We provide students with wraparound support to guide them on a journey of recovery through a trauma-informed approach. This approach helps students acknowledge, confront, and resolve barriers that have impacted their ability to reach their full potential.

We believe in fostering a highly relational environment where students, teachers and staff develop meaningful connections based on trust, respect and empathy. These relationships serve as the foundation for effective teaching and learning, allowing us to better understand and support the unique needs and aspirations of each student.
