Job description

Job Description

School Maintenance Caretaker £15.00 - £18.00 per hour

Are you an experienced Maintenance Professional looking to transition into the Education sector? I am currently looking to recruit a number of Maintenance professionals to work on an ongoing TEMPORARY basis, supporting the site teams in carrying out day-to-day general maintenance and site work in Schools across the area. There will be FULL TIME AND PART TIME positions available throughout the School year which run for a variety of time. There may also be an opportunity to move to a PERMANENT CONTRACT within the Schools, although this is not guaranteed. You must be available to start straight away and be FLEXIBLE WITH THE WORKING HOURS as some Schools require staff to work split shift patterns. FOR EXAMPLE 6:00 a.m. - 10:00 a.m. then return 2:00 p.m. - 6:00 p.m.

As a full-time temporary school caretaker, the school will expect you to essentially be a permanent member of staff, so you will be expected to:

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

YOU WILL BE REQUIRED TO FULLY REGISTER WITH US INCLUDING PROVIDING RIGHT TO WORK DOCUMENTS ALONG WITH OBTAINING AN ENHANCED CHILD WORKFORCE DBS THAT WILL BE PROCESSED BY US BUT COME AT A COST OF £47.20 (UNLESS YOU ALREADY HAVE ONE REGISTERED ON THE UPDATE SERVICE). PLEASE ONLY APPLY IF YOU ARE ABLE TO DO THIS.
