Due to the expansion of our dedicated Premises teams and the retirement of valued colleagues, we have an exciting opportunity for a Caretaker to play a key role in the upkeep of our Trust’s estate. If you’re ready to make a real impact and support our schools in delivering the best environments for staff and students, we’d love to hear from you!

We are looking to appoint enthusiastic individuals to a variety of roles within our Premises teams across our Trust.  Due to expansion of existing teams and the retirement of longstanding Premises staff, we have several opportunities to appoint a Site Manager and Caretaker.  These roles will support Headteachers and the Trust central team to ensure the efficient management, operation and maintenance of the Trust estate.

Although the roles will encompass all aspects of premises management, there will be a requirement to focus on compliance and health and safety, alongside assisting our academies with their day-to-day operational management.  The postholder(s) may be required to work with a variety of Trust academies.

We require applications from Individuals that are driven and can recognise and build on current strengths whilst leading a culture of continuous improvement. The challenge will be to ensure consistent alignment between our academies and ensure we maintain our reputation within our local community

 

The Trust has an existing reputation for high quality education with a relentless focus upon high expectations and aspirations.  We are a friendly, dynamic and innovative Trust and pride ourselves on our commitment to ensuring student progress through high quality teaching and learning provision for all. The successful applicant will share these values and play an active part in delivering on this commitment.
