“I love being part of an organisation whose vision is to see a state ‘where every child flourishes’. I value the opportunity to contribute, even in a small way, to the impactful work that is being done in the early childhood education sector.”
- Alex Bron - Management Accountant
For Children. For You. For Always.
Are you ready to do something that truly matters?
At C&K, our purpose is to make a positive impact on children’s lives. It’s what we’ve been doing for more than 115 years. Through evidence-based thinking, hard work and true compassion, we’ve built a trusted reputation as Queensland’s leading provider of early childhood education.
But times are changing, and so are we. And although we’re passionate believers that children come first, we know our people must come first, too.
Join us and find a better way with C&K - for children, for you, for always.
Help shape the future of children in our care
As one of our highly valued Clerical Assistants with our Charleville team, you’ll play a vital role in ensuring our centre operates smoothly and continues to support children to become confident lifelong learners.
Working 4 hours a week , you’ll be a friendly first point of contact for visitors to our centre. You’ll assist with administrative and financial tasks, such as managing enrolment records, and contribute to our inclusive, kind and collaborative team culture where everyone can belong, grow and thrive.
What you’ll bring
To thrive and succeed in this role, you will be a great communicator with the ability to nurture friendly, respectful relationships with children, families and colleagues.
You will also hold:
- A working knowledge of the Microsoft Office suite.
- A current drivers licence.
- Valid Blue Card and current Police Check (within three months or willing to obtain these – C&K will cover the cost).
We would also love you to have experience in a similar administration role. Any experience in the early childhood sector or a qualification in business administration would be great, but not essential.
Why C&K?
Every C&K career helps children belong and grow. We want the same for you.
