KidSTART Singapore Ltd. (KSL) was incorporated as a Company Limited by Guarantee (CLG) under the Ministry of Social and Family Development (MSF) in Sep 2020 to implement the KidSTART programme nationwide. The KidSTART programme provides upstream support to low-income families in the areas of child development and health, parent-child engagement skills and works with partners to address the social support needs of families.

Description of Division/Branch

The Regional Head will be part of the Service Management Division, and oversee a team comprising of KidSTART Practitioners (KSPs) to ensure the implementation of KidSTART in the region, as well as regional Service Managers to oversee KidSTART Agencies (KSAs) operating in the region.

The role of the Regional Head includes having oversight over a cross regional function, e.g. the development, refinement and tracking of service standards, the conceptualisation and implementation of an engagement framework with partners, tracking and monitoring of funding agreement deliverables or innovative and transformation efforts to improve service delivery efficiencies. Besides this cross regional function, the Regional Head will also be responsible for ensuring the effective delivery of KidSTART by KSPs in the respective region and meet the Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) and expected deliverables. This involves engaging and networking with partners in the region which could include SSOs, FSCs, community-based agencies, preschools and support wider efforts to mobilise the broader community to create collaborative and sustained partnerships that address systemic issues faced by KidSTART families.

Key Roles and Responsibilities

1) Service Management

• Carry out regular contract management, programme monitoring and audits of KSAs and hospitals

• Drive completion of programme deliverables within agreed cost, timeline & allocated resources.

• Manage critical incidents and feedback from KSAs, partners, clients and members of public.

• Address performance issues with funded agencies and oversee action plans by agencies to address concerns

• Track and measure progress of programmes against set plans and timelines and escalate issues of concern that impact implementation.

2) Programme Delivery

• Supervise a team of Lead Practitioners and KSPs to deliver KidSTART as per the service model and meet required deliverables and KPIs

• Plan and organise manpower resources involved in the delivery of KidSTART, for effective and efficient completion.

• Monitor progress and achievement of deliverables and address service delivery gaps and concerns

• Carry out regular engagement sessions with partners to share benefits of KidSTART and encourage referrals of eligible families.

3) Regional Partnerships

• Partner KidSTART KSAs, preschools and community-based agencies (e.g. FSCs and SSOs) within the region to ensure timely and effective delivery of KidSTART programmes in an integrated and coordinated manner. This may include the following:

• Develop an engagement plan to collaborate with partners in the social service eco-system at the regional level.
• Set up engagement platforms with community stakeholders e.g. preschools, social service agencies, health and education to raise awareness of KidSTART, address gaps in service delivery and strengthen the coordination of support to families.
• Lead and oversee multi-sector engagement platforms to develop a shared vision and implement a collective plan of action to achieve positive child development, child-health and parent-child outcomes.
• Develop operational protocols with partner agencies serving low-income families to deliver services in an effective and timely manner.

Competencies required:

• Knowledge of social service delivery and ability to engage stakeholders across different levels and sectors

• Strong leadership and supervisory skills

• Strong sense of purpose to help low-income families and passionate about forging partnerships across diverse stakeholders to achieve collective impact.

• Strong interpersonal, facilitation and communication skills, and have demonstrated ability to influence and build trust with stakeholders.

• Familiarity with systems thinking, community development approaches or the early childhood sector is an advantage.

• At least 5 years of supervisory and staff management experience

• Ability to work in a fast paced environment and comfortable with change.

THE OPPORTUNITY

The first six years of a child's life shape everything that follows. For children from lower-income families, what happens in that window determines the trajectory. KidSTART exists to change those odds: personal home-based support, delivered by trained practitioners, built on evidence, and scaled nationally.

KidSTART completed its nationwide expansion in 2025. The programme now reaches families in all 24 towns, is scaling toward 80 per cent of eligible children in every birth cohort and has nearly tripled its practitioner base in two years. What happens next depends on whether the programme model can keep pace with that growth.

That is what this role is for.

ABOUT THE ROLE

As Assistant Director for Programme Development, you will lead the thinking behind how KidSTART works, and where it is headed. You own the service model and the operational policies that govern how practitioners support families. You work directly with MSF in the strategic direction and hold accountability for programme outcomes across a network of implementing agencies, while also looking ahead to develop new or better services and programmes to better serve children from lower-income and/or vulnerable families.

This is not an execution role. It is the role that decides what gets executed. You will need to hold along view of what a good early childhood programme looks like on a national scale, while staying close enough to implementation to know when the model is not working.

The right person for this role is someone who has shaped policy or programme design before, is energised by the complexity of multi-agency implementation, and is motivated by the prospect of getting it right for children who need it most.

WHAT YOU WILL DO

Programme Strategy and Model Design

Lead the planning, design, and review of KidSTART's service model, operational policies, and processes —including funding and manpower frameworks — aligned with MSF's national strategic direction. Own the integrity of what KidSTART does and how it does it.

Programme Monitoring and Evaluation

Drive the review and continuous refinement of programme design, implementation quality, and outcomes measurement. Ensure that data on programme performance reaches the right people and informs real decisions, not just reports.

Funder and Agency Accountability

Oversee KidSTART's funding agreements with implementing agencies. Hold agencies to performance standards, manage disbursements, and address compliance and audit requirements. Maintain the quality of the partnership network that delivers the programme on the ground.

Team Leadership

Lead and develop the Programme Development team. Set direction, build analytical and policy capability within the team, and create conditions for rigorous, thoughtful work in an organisation that is still forming.

WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR

We are looking for someone who can operate at the level of programme architecture — thinking clearly about what a national early childhood programme needs to do and how it needs to be structured — while remaining grounded in what works for families and practitioners.

You will have:

–   At least six years of relevant experience in policy formulation, programme development, data analytics, or planning.

–   A bachelor's degree, with strong writing and analytical skills.

–   A track record of leading projects and engaging stakeholders at different levels, including government agencies and community partners.

–   The ability to work independently, manage competing priorities, and deliver quality outcomes in a fast-paced environment.

–   Experience leading a team and supporting others' professional growth alongside your own.

Experience in the public sector, social service sector, or early childhood sector is an advantage. Familiarity with MSF's policy landscape will help you hit the ground running.

WHY JOIN KIDSTART

Policy roles in government shape what happens at scale. Programme roles in SSAs are close to the work. This role is both. KidSTART sits at the intersection of government mandate and community delivery, and the AD for Programme Development is the person who holds that tension productively.

You will work on a programme that has demonstrated outcomes — studies have shown measurable improvements in parenting confidence and child socio-emotional development within 12 months of home visits. You will have the mandate to improve it further, and the accountability to show that it works.

For someone who wants to shape how Singapore supports its most vulnerable children, this is the work.

THE OPPORTUNITY

The first six years of a child's life shape everything that follows. For children from lower-income families, what happens in that window determines the trajectory. KidSTART exists to change those odds: personal home-based support, delivered by trained practitioners, built on evidence, and scaled nationally.

KidSTART completed its nationwide expansion in 2025 and now reaches families in all 24 towns. Scaling to 80 per cent of eligible children in every birth cohort requires a programme that is designed well, monitored carefully, and continuously improved. That work happens in this team.

ABOUT THE ROLE

As Manager or Senior Manager in Programme Development, you will be a core contributor to the operational policy work that keeps KidSTART running well. You will research, analyse, write, and implement — working across internal teams and external partners to develop the policies, frameworks, and monitoring systems the programme depends on.

This is a substantive policy and planning role. The work is analytical and detail-oriented, but the purpose is practical: better policies mean better support for practitioners, and better support for practitioners means better outcomes for children and families.

We are looking for someone who is rigorous about the work, curious about what is happening on the ground, and motivated by the prospect of contributing to a programme that makes a real difference in children's lives.

WHAT YOU WILL DO

Operational Policy and Programme Design

Contribute to the planning, development, and review of KidSTART's service model, operational policies, and processes. Translate strategic direction into practical frameworks that implementing agencies and practitioners can use.

Programme Monitoring and Reporting

Analyse programme data,track deliverables, and prepare reports on outcomes and budget utilisation. Identify what the data is telling us about programme performance and surface that clearly for decision-makers.

Partner and Funding Compliance

Support the management of KidSTART's funding agreements with implementing agencies. Track partner compliance with funding requirements, prepare disbursement documentation, and respond to audit-related queries.

Stakeholder Engagement

Work with internal teams, implementing agencies, and government counterparts to advance programme work. Prepare briefs, proposals, and policy papers for different audiences at various levels.

WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR

We are looking for someone who is analytical, writes well, and energised by policy and planning work, with a real-world implementation dimension. You do not need to have worked in early childhood before. You do need to care about the mission and be willing to learn the programme deeply.

Preferably, you will have:

–   Experience or a strong interest in policy formulation, data analysis, planning, or programme development.

–   A degree in Sociology, Social Work, Psychology, or a related field, with strong writing and analytical skills.

–   The ability to lead projects independently, engage stakeholders at different levels, and manage tight timelines.

–   A flexible and resourceful disposition — KidSTART is a growing organisation and the work evolves quickly.

–   A genuine motivation to learn and develop professionally.

Experience in the public sector, social service sector, or early childhood sector is an advantage. What matters most is intellectual rigour and the drive to do the work well.

WHY JOIN KIDSTART

KidSTART is a young organisation that has grown quickly and is still building its policy infrastructure. Joining now means contributing to frameworks and systems that will shape how the programme operates for years. The learning curve is real, and so is the impact.

You will work closely with a small, focused team, with exposure to government counterparts at MSF and ECDA, implementing agencies across Singapore, and a national programme with demonstrated outcomes. For someone early in a policy or social sector career —or making a move into this space — this is a strong platform.

The work is hard. The purpose is clear.
