Site Manager
Salary: Scale 5 £27,711 to £30,060
Contract: Full Time, Permanent
Closing Date: Monday 28th April 2025 9am
Start Date: June 2025
Location: Melton Vale Sixth Form College, Melton Mowbray, LE13 1DN

MV16 is well known locally for its exceptionally well maintained facilities. We are looking to appoint a Site Manager to continue to care for both the built and natural aspects of the site. You will work closely with the Business Manager to drive a strong health and safety culture, ensure compliance and work to maintain and develop the college as the business needs dictate.

The Site Manager leads a team of cleaners, and this sits within the broader Business Support Team which is led by the College Business Manager. The team delivers all non-educational functions including operations, facilities, admissions, finance, marketing, HR, governance and SLT support. We work collaboratively with teaching staff to ensure we can provide a first class educational experience to our young people.

The role would suit people with either a practical compliance background, or hands-on maintenance skills such as joinery or plumbing. You will need to be comfortable working at height to undertake routine maintenance tasks, and you will receive accredited training for this. The successful candidate will be able to contribute to the wider remit of the Business Support Team by being approachable, flexible and having a positive, 'can-do' attitude.

The working pattern will involve split shifts on some days of the week, and we can be flexible to accommodate the needs of the successful applicant so long as the core hours of 6am to 12 noon are covered daily. The remaining hours can be agreed upon appointment. Additional overtime may be required on an ad-hoc basis to provide cover for College events and lettings. There is an expectation that the role will require some office function but is primarily operational.

We positively welcome applications from all sections of the community. Melton Vale Sixth Form College is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people, and we expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. All staff will be required to undergo an enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service search in line with DfE requirements.
