‘Do Something BIG’ campaign – advertising vacancies on Find A Job
The Department for Education’s Do Something BIG recruitment campaign is continuing to highlight the huge difference early years educators make to young children and how rewarding working in the sector can be. On average, the DfE are seeing over 46,000 visits to the campaign website each week, which directs potential applicants to use DWP’s Find a Job vacancy platform to search for early years roles in their area.
Listing early years vacancies on Find a Job, which is free to use, is a cost-effective way of ensuring they are seen by a large pool of candidates and will help connect more job seekers with the opportunities they’re looking for.
Please see the ‘DWP Find a Job instructions’ to help you to create an account and post any current or upcoming jobs in their setting.
Use the term ‘early years’ in your job advert titles and select ‘Education and childcare jobs’ as the job category.
A key element of the Childcare Works programme is provider support for early years and wraparound providers which is offered in a variety of ways.
Recent press release signposts providers to the Childcare Works HUB where all resources can be found.
