Most Director roles are about maintaining the status quo. This isn’t one of them.
Our client is a family-owned academy in South Tampa that’s hitting a massive turning point. They’re consolidating two schools into one flagship campus, chasing elite accreditations, and looking for someone to own the entire transformation.
This is for you if:
You’re a "fixer" who loves taking an operation from good to elite.
You actually enjoy the challenge of building a team culture from the ground up.
You know Florida DCF licensing like the back of your hand, but you also know how to sell a vision to a touring parent.
You want a seat at the table with ownership who actually listens.
The Essentials:
✅ Florida Director Credential (License can be pending).
✅ 3+ years in the driver’s seat of a childcare center.
✅ A track record of actually moving the needle on enrollment.
The Payoff:
You get to build a legacy in the Tampa Bay community. No corporate red tape—just a supportive team, a competitive hourly rate, and performance bonuses that actually reward your hard work.
