Summary
Level 3 Early Years Educator – Plymouth & Devon
Are you a Level 3 Early Years Educator based in Plymouth or elsewhere across Devon, looking for the right next setting — not just the next available job?
At Harbour Talent, we do recruitment differently.
Most agencies send candidates wherever they need to fill vacancies. We take a candidate-first approach. We start by getting to know you, understanding what matters in your next role, and then introducing you to nurseries that genuinely fit your goals, values, and working style.
What you can expect from us:
A confidential conversation (phone or face-to-face) about what you’re looking for in your next role
Carefully matched opportunities based on location, culture, leadership, and EYFS approach
Support beyond placement — we focus on long-term fit, not quick placements
What we’re looking for:
A UK-recognised Level 3 Early Years qualification
Right to work in the UK (please note, we cannot offer visa sponsorship)
Ability to reasonably commute to Plymouth or your preferred Devon location
A genuine passion for supporting and developing children under five
About Harbour Talent:
