Traineeship Opportunities
Start your early learning journey with Story House through our GenerationU traineeship program. Whether you're finishing school or switching careers, we offer the perfect mix of paid learning, mentorship, and real-world experience. All in a supportive, empowering environment.
Still in high school? Our school-based traineeships let you earn while you learn, working alongside experienced educators while completing your Certificate III. It's never too early to shape your future in early childhood education.
Day in the Life Program
Our Day in the Life program offers a unique, hands-on shadowing experience for those new to early childhood education or returning after a break.
Spend the day in one of our high-performing services, observe real learning environments, and discover what it’s like to be part of the Story House community.
It’s a supportive, inspiring way to explore your future in early learning, no experience needed!
Service Leadership Team
Story House services have a Service Leadership Team (SLT) which is a distributed leadership model. We believe that this model enhances our services, offers career progression, and cultivates a skilled educator base, ensuring quality outcomes for children and families.
Within the SLT, the Service Manager remains the senior figure with ultimate responsibility for quality and operational outcomes, necessitating strong team support. Empowered to lead within their own service community, the SLT aims to guide and improve early childhood practice continuously.
For our 2ICs, we offer the Inspiring Leaders certification, a tailored program that builds leadership capability, confidence and career readiness.
