Loyal Blue Recruitment are working with a school in Watford, Hertfordshire and are looking to speak with reliable, practical and hardworking School Site Assistants to join their premises team.
This is a hands-on role for someone who takes pride in keeping a school safe, secure and running smoothly.
You don’t necessarily need years of school site experience. We’re equally interested in people from maintenance, facilities, caretaking, estates or similar practical backgrounds who have the right attitude and would enjoy working as part of a school community.
The Role
As a School Site Assistant, you’ll help with the day-to-day running and upkeep of the school site.
Your duties are likely to include:
* Opening, closing and securing areas of the school
* Carrying out general maintenance and minor repairs
* Completing regular site, security and health & safety checks
* Setting up classrooms, halls and other areas for lessons, meetings and events
* Moving furniture, equipment and deliveries around the site
* Keeping external areas safe, tidy and accessible
* Reporting maintenance issues and helping arrange repairs where needed
* Supporting contractors and visitors working on site
* Responding to day-to-day premises issues as they arise
* Working closely with the Site Manager and wider school team
Who Would Suit This Role?
You could already be working as a Site Assistant, Caretaker, Premises Assistant, Facilities Assistant or Maintenance Operative.
Alternatively, you may have practical maintenance or facilities experience and be looking for an opportunity to move into a school environment.
Most importantly, we’re looking for someone who is:
* Reliable and punctual
* Practical and happy to get stuck in
* Able to spot problems and use their initiative
* Comfortable carrying out basic maintenance tasks
* Friendly and professional around staff and students
* Able to work as part of a busy site team
* Conscious of health & safety and safeguarding responsibilities
Previous experience within a school would be an advantage, but we’re happy to hear from candidates with transferable experience.
As this position involves working within a school, successful candidates will be subject to the appropriate safeguarding and compliance checks, including an Enhanced DBS check.
Why Apply Through Loyal Blue Recruitment?
We’re working directly with the school on these opportunities and are looking to build a shortlist of good local candidates.
We’ll talk you through the role, find out about your experience and, importantly, what you’re looking for next.
If you’re practical, dependable and like the idea of working somewhere where the job you do genuinely matters to the people around you, we’d really like to hear from you.
Apply today and a member of the Loyal Blue Recruitment team will be in touch for an informal chat
