Nursery Cleaner

A cleaning post at Gayton Primary School, covering its new school-based nursery. The work centres on cleaning and disinfecting classrooms, toilets, the nappy-changing area and kitchen, with waste disposal, spillage response and restocking supplies. Because the setting serves the youngest pupils, hygiene standards and floor-level care are central, and the post requires an enhanced DBS check with children's barred list check.

Start is as soon as possible, and visa sponsorship is not available.
