This post is important in providing the necessary leadership of the delivery team process at the interface between the design and construction teams. A thorough understanding of highways contracts, construction techniques and relevant health and safety legislation is essential.

Why did you decide on a career in childcare?

Because I feel a sense of accomplishment every time I help a child learn a new skill – I think a job in childcare is very fulfilling and you really see your teaching efforts blossom with each and every day.

Why do you enjoy working for Childbase?

It’s an outstanding company that really values it’s employees; I feel a part of the team and the team feels like one big family.
