About Storypark

Storypark creates tools for educators, early childhood education services, and families to collaboratively document, share, discuss, and strengthen the learning and development of children. Our purpose is to help every child fulfil their unique potential by connecting and empowering the community around them.

We are well-established as market leaders in the early childhood online education space in New Zealand and Australia. And more recently have established a presence in Canada.

We’re now on a mission to deepen the impact our product makes even further. Expanding our platform to provide a centralised tool for managing ECEC organisations, all in one place.

  • Uphold service level agreements (SLAs) and maintain a high standard of professionalism.

What You’ll Bring

  • Strong communication skills, both written and verbal.
  • Empathy and patience, especially in challenging situations.
  • Ability to quickly learn new software tools and product features.

  • Background in education, childcare, or community-based services.
  • Ability to communicate effectively with diverse groups of users.
  • Interest in contributing ideas to improve processes and customer experience.
  • Working at Storypark

    We strive to create a respectful, caring, safe and inclusive culture and are proud to be an equal opportunity employer. We love that we can celebrate different perspectives, this makes us a stronger team. We welcome people from diverse backgrounds to join us.

    In joining our team you’ll enjoy :

  • Be part of a high-growth company where your work truly matters.
  • If Wellington based – a fantastic office and hybrid working environment.
  • Join a hugely collaborative and supportive team.
  • Career development pathways.
