Bright Horizons is the Early Years and Childcare Workforce Development Team for Wiltshire. We work on behalf of the Wiltshire Early Years Development and Childcare Partnership to provide financial help with courses and qualifications for the counties childcare workforce, help people find a career in childcare, by providing information about current vacancies, as well as support employers with information about training and employment issues.
 

Welcome

Jobs can be edited and changed an unlimited amount of times and you are not limited to the amount of information you can give. You can also have your vacancy placed in our Training & Recruitment Bulletin which is mailed to over 1200 settings in the county.

This service is totally FREE and is open to Wiltshire Childcare Settings only.

To advertise your vacancy please click on Employers Area.


New to the website is the ‘Employers Area’ where you will find lots of useful information and tips on recruiting staff along with example job descriptions and retention strategies you may like to adopt. This new area has been formulated with the support Wiltshire Council Childcare Development Officers, a DCFS publication ‘Recruitment & Retention; A good practice guide for early years, childcare and playwork providers’ DfES 2003 as well as previous experiences of childcare providers within the county. We hope you find it a useful tool, helping you fill your staff vacancies more quickly and effectively.
