We are looking to appoint an enthusiastic, dedicated and hard-working school caretaker to work as part of our Estates and Facilities Management team, to ensure our school sites remain safe, secure and maintained to the highest standards for all our users.


The role will involve, but is not restricted to, identifying and undertaking routine repairs, maintenance and improvement work on the school sites, undertaking general caretaking duties including the opening and closing premises, porterage duties (including driving between sites) and health and safety / statutory compliance checks.


We operate on a rotational shift system working on average 37.5hrs per week Monday to Saturday with frequent additional hours available, whilst out of hours school functions and events take place.


All full-time staff receive 30 days annual leave plus bank holidays (5 compulsory days are set aside over the Christmas and New Year period).

  • Ensuring vigilance in recognising changes in behaviour or mood
  • Reporting safeguarding concerns in line with the School's Safeguarding Children and Child Protection Policy
  • Attending Safeguarding training and updates as requested by the School


The duties of this role meet the definition of regulated activity relevant to children and an enhanced DBS check with children's barred list is appropriate.
