Job description

Are you an experienced Maintenance Professional looking to transition into the Education sector?

I am currently looking to recruit a Maintenance professional to work on an ongoing temporary basis, supporting the school site team in carrying out day-to-day general maintenance and site work. Previous School Maintenance/Caretaker experience is preferred, but not essential. There will be full-time and part-time positions available throughout the school year which run for varying lengths of time. There may also be an opportunity to move to a permanent contract within the school, although this is not guaranteed.

You must be available to begin as soon as possible and be flexible with the working hours as shift work may be required.

Role expectations

• Carry out general maintenance of the school as well as litter picking
• Carry out odd jobs delegated to you by the supervisor
• Open and close the school building
• Work independently and as a team to ensure tasks are completed safely and efficiently
• Set alarms

You will be required to fully register with us, including providing right-to-work documents and obtaining an Enhanced Child Workforce DBS that will be processed by us but comes at a cost of £56.49 (unless you already have one registered on the update service). Please only apply if you are able to do this.

I am keen to speak to experienced caretakers/maintenance professionals who are interested in working in a forward-thinking school. Please apply above and I will be in touch in due course. Alternatively, if you know of anybody who might be interested in this position then we offer generous referral fees!

Note: Applicants must have a DBS on the update service, or be willing to pay £56.49 for a new one to be processed.
