An exciting opportunity has arisen for a full time Early Years Practitioner to join our nursery team at Echline Primary School. We are
looking to recruit an enthusiastic and skilled practitioner who is passionate about Early Years to contribute to the care and education of our children, supporting them to reach their full potential.
Please note - You must ensure that you have the required qualification(s) before you apply, so please refer to the attached documentation for requirements, or we will be unable to consider your application.
The post is regulated work with children and/or protected adults under the Protection of Vulnerable Groups (Scotland) Act 2007. The preferred candidate will be required to join the PVG Scheme or undergo a PVG Scheme update check. Where an individual has spent a continuous period of 3 months or more out with the UK in the last 5 years, an Overseas Criminal Record Check will be required. You will be required to provide this check. An unconditional offer of employment and commencement in the post will be subject to the outcome of both these pre-employment checks being deemed satisfactory.
We are committed to a diverse and inclusive workforce where everyone feels valued and able to be their best. We particularly encourage applications from women for senior roles, as well as people from minority ethnic backgrounds, people with disabilities or neurodivergent people, care experienced people, carers and LGBT+ people across all levels of the organisation, all of whom are currently underrepresented. All applicants will be considered fairly based on skills and experience. Disabled and care-experienced applicants who meet the minimum job criteria will be guaranteed an interview.
