OSHC MANAGER

At Northside OSHC, we believe every child deserves a safe, joyful and nurturing environment where they can unwind, explore and thrive. Our Before School, After School and Vacation Care programs support Prep–Year 7 students through fun, belonging and care grounded in Christian values.

But first – our students have something to say:

 

“What should our new OSHC Manager be like?”

“Someone fun!”

“And who loves to play!”

“Someone kind and friendly”

“…And someone who knows where we left the glitter”

 

Our OSHC kids know exactly what they’re looking for. Do you?

 

About the role

Northside Christian College is seeking a warm, organised and proactive OSHC Manager to lead the day-to-day operations of our OSHC service.
This is a key leadership role where you will:

✔ Build strong relationships with families

Why this role matters:
In OSHC, you meet students at their most relaxed moments. You become the person who listens, encourages, and sees the little victories in their day. This is a ministry of presence — and it shapes children more than you may ever know.
