Job description

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

I am currently seeking a Maintenance professional to support a school site team on an ongoing temporary basis, handling day-to-day general maintenance and site work.

Previous School Maintenance/Caretaker experience is preferred but not essential. Positions are available on a full-time and part-time basis throughout the school year, with varying durations. There may also be an opportunity for permanent employment, although this is not guaranteed.

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

Responsibilities include:

1. Carrying out general maintenance and litter picking.
2. Performing odd jobs delegated by the supervisor.
3. Opening and closing the school building.
4. Working independently and as part of a team to ensure safety and efficiency.
5. Setting alarms.

Applicants will need to register with us, providing right-to-work documents and obtaining an Enhanced Child Workforce DBS, which we will process at a cost of £56.49 unless you already have one registered on the update service. Please only apply if you can meet these requirements.

We are eager to speak with experienced caretakers and maintenance professionals interested in working in a progressive school environment. Please apply above, and we will contact you. If you know someone suitable, we offer generous referral fees!
