OSHC Regional Manager | Boronia Region

Partnering with parents and school communities, at Junior Adventures Group (JAG) our goal is to help today’s children navigate their tomorrow by supporting children's development through play in fun, engaging environments. We live and breathe our company values every day by being considerate, passionate, courageous, and making a difference.

Lead High-Performing OSHC Teams Across Melbourne's South East & East

At Junior Adventures Group (JAG), we believe incredible experiences for children start with exceptional leaders.

We're looking for an inspiring Region Manager to lead a portfolio of 10-15 Outside School Hours Care services across Melbourne's East and South East, including Boronia, Belgrave and Cranbourne. This is more than an operational leadership role, it's an opportunity to influence service quality, mentor emerging leaders, strengthen school partnerships, and leave a lasting impact on our communities.

If you're a people-first leader who thrives on coaching others, building relationships and driving meaningful outcomes, this could be your next career-defining move.

Why You'll Love This Role

✅ Lead and inspire a portfolio of services across a diverse region

✅ Coach and develop Coordinators to reach their full potential

✅ Partner directly with Principals, families and community stakeholders

✅ Influence service quality, culture, growth and performance

✅ Join a supportive leadership team committed to helping people grow

✅ Be part of a business that invests in your development and future career pathways

What You'll Be Doing

No two days are the same! One day you might be coaching Coordinators, developing action plans and supporting service quality. The next, you'll be meeting with school leaders, collaborating on community events, coaching a team through challenges or helping shape the future direction of a service. 

You'll be responsible for:

• Leading, mentoring and developing a team of Service Coordinators and Educators
• Driving service quality, compliance and continuous improvement
• Building trusted partnerships with schools, families and local communities
• Supporting engaging, child-focused programs across your portfolio
• Managing workforce planning, rostering and operational performance
• Coaching leaders through performance, development and growth opportunities
• Supporting incident management, risk and safety outcomes
• Identifying opportunities to strengthen services and deliver exceptional experiences for children

What's In It For You?

• Competitive salary package with vehicle allowance
• Ongoing leadership development and career progression opportunities
• 50% childcare discount plus eligible government subsidies
• Employee referral rewards of up to $1,000
• Health, wellbeing and lifestyle discounts
• A genuine opportunity to make a lasting impact across multiple communities

Who We're Looking For

You might already be a Region Manager, Area Manager or Operations Leader. Or perhaps you're a high-performing Coordinator ready to take the next step into a broader leadership role?

You will bring with you:

• A Diploma qualification or higher in an ACECQA-approved field
• Current Working with Children Check, First Aid, CPR, Asthma and Anaphylaxis certifications
• Driver's licence and reliable vehicle
• Strong leadership and people development skills
• Experience coaching, mentoring or managing teams
• Outstanding relationship-building ability
• Exceptional time management and organisational skills
• A proactive, solutions-focused mindset
• Passion for delivering quality programs and supporting communities
• The ability to juggle multiple priorities across a fast-paced portfolio

Experience within education, OSHC, children's services, health, recreation, sport or community-focused environments will be highly regarded.
