Our story

Built by someone who sits close to the hiring every day

AUS ECT Funlion was founded by Parth, a working early childhood media and education professional in Melbourne. That means the advice here is grounded in current, real world sector experience, not generic recruitment theory. We know what directors read, what they skip, and what makes them pick up the phone.

Why a lion in a graduation cap

The lion is the confidence we want every educator to walk into an interview with. The cap is the qualification they have earned and the professional standing it deserves. The smile is the point of difference: this industry runs on warmth, play and connection, and a career service for it should feel the same way.

What we stand on

Honesty first

We tell clients what actually works, including hard truths about their applications, delivered kindly.

Practical over theoretical

Every session ends with clear, actionable next steps. No vague advice.

We do the translating

Clients talk in plain words. We translate their experience into director ready language.

Integrity with the sector

Everything aligns with VIT expectations, the National Quality Framework and honest representation of experience.

Fun is in the name

Serious outcomes, friendly delivery. Job hunting should not feel like punishment.

Both sides, one mission

Educators seeking roles and services seeking great people are the same problem seen from two directions. We work on both.
