Work for The Childcare Company
Businesses don’t come any more people-focused than The Childcare Company. That’s why a UK training provider career with us will be one where you feel seen, respected, and always looked after.
It’ll be uniquely rewarding too, in more ways than one. No wonder we’re officially one of the UK’s best companies to work for.
So, we invite you to consider working with us, and begin your career in early years education.
We’re a 2-star ‘outstanding’ employer!
Best Companies recently awarded The Childcare Company 2 stars, naming us as an outstanding UK employer. We already knew people love to work here, but now we’ve earned an accreditation to prove it.
Childcare sector employee benefits
The Childcare Company has always looked after its people. No matter which roles spark your interest, whether you’re drawn to UK education training jobs, apprenticeship assessor jobs, or skills coach jobs in childcare helping learners on their journey, you can rest assured we’ve consistently invested the time, money, and imagination it takes to be an employer people really want to join.
As part of The Childcare Company team, you’ll join a childcare training provider where you’ll get all the practical perks and rewards you’d expect from a conscientious brand at the top of its game. We offer flexible working UK jobs that you can fit around your lifestyle and family needs.
You’ll get much more than that, though. As a wellbeing-focused employer, you’ll also get to work with supportive, like-minded people who are happy in their work, and love getting the job done. Our team is made up of people-people, whose appetite for success comes with an attitude of care.
As a modern organisation which moves with the times, we’re big believers in having a healthy work-life balance. It’s all part of us understanding the moral and commercial value of having a happier, healthier workforce. Considering this, whenever possible, we make flexible hours a standard practice.
As well as giving you a paid day off to do something charitable like volunteer, we’ll give you a paid day to look after your own mental health and well-being. Book a massage or swim in a mountain lake – whatever gives you the boost you need.
Just another simple perk of the job, this time giving you access to hundreds of great offers and discounts catering for every budget. Enjoy LIFE Lounge in stores or online at a number of well-known retailers.
We all need a little help sometimes. Available 24/7 to you and any over-16s in your household, our helpline gives you access to information, advice, and counselling for support with any issue.
We all know the importance of maintaining a healthy work-life balance and taking time for yourself. From day one, we offer 25 days of annual leave, 3 additional paid days off over Christmas, plus bank holidays. You’ll also get your birthday off (because let’s face it, working on your birthday should be illegal!), and you can even buy up to 5 extra days of annual leave.
Looking after your future has never been more important. That’s why you’ll be set up with a NEST pension from the day you start working with us. This is done on a 3% salary sacrifice basis, helping to minimise your tax contributions. You can opt out of this benefit if you prefer, of course.
Your well-being matters beyond the workplace. Our Life Assurance benefit offers peace of mind by providing your loved ones with financial protection when they need it most.
At The Childcare Company, we understand that health issues can arise unexpectedly. That’s why you’ll enjoy discretionary staff sick pay from day one of your employment with us. This is to ensure that our employees can take the time they need to recover without worrying about their financial stability.
The Childcare Company is always on the lookout for superb new talent. If you recommend someone into our business, you’ll earn yourself a little bonus! Just a thank-you from us for enhancing the team.
From Christmas parties to our quarterly team meet-ups – we’re a company that likes to get along and really values connecting face-to-face.
Our generous Enhanced Maternity Package supports new birth mothers and adopting mothers throughout their first year, offering 12 weeks at full pay, followed by 12 weeks at half pay, then additional statutory maternity pay through to week 39. It’s a package that gives you the financial security to focus on what matters most during this precious time.
We’ve partnered with an independent financial organisation, Prospera, to offer all our colleagues free, no-obligation financial well-being support. This can include advice on areas like mortgages, savings accounts, investment planning, retirement planning, protection planning, debt planning, and wills.

Our people are empowered to make a difference, both in the workplace and beyond. The Give Back Project gives every member of staff a paid day off each year to volunteer for a cause close to their heart. Whether it’s supporting a local charity, getting involved in a community project or using your skills to help others, you’ll be able to dedicate a day to doing something that’s meaningful to you – and get paid for it, too!
We believe every parent deserves dedicated time to bond with their new child. New fathers can fully embrace those unforgettable early weeks through our Enhanced Paternity Package, providing two weeks of fully paid leave.
