We are OnFife and as Fife’s largest cultural organisation we specialise in making jaws drop, hearts warm, eyes light up and imaginations run wild. We work with a huge range of partners, artists and creatives and our spaces are some of Fife’s favourite places. An ambitious leadership-oriented charity, we’re built on strong values, and those values make us who we are – Fearless, Inviting, Fair and Exciting.
We’re a real Living Wage employer, and we offer a local government pension scheme, generous holiday allowance and flexible working opportunities. If you need to travel for work, we can provide pool cars if you’re near head office or pay travel expenses so you are not out of pocket! Along with this, you can also access discounted gym/swim memberships and other employee benefits.
The Role
We have an exciting opportunity for a Facilities Assistant to join our operations team. This is a permanent, part-time post working 30 hours per week.
Providing direct support to Venue Warden staff and Venue Management, you will undertake duties relating to the operation of buildings and surrounding grounds, ensuring minimal disruption to the daily activities for users and providing direct customer engagement and support. The role is mainly based at Adam Smith Theatre, but you may be required to undertake duties at other locations.
The base working pattern is currently 9:30 – 18:30 on Tuesdays and 11:00 – 23:00 on Fridays and Saturdays (when shows / events are on these nights). However, there is scope for flexibility with these hours in negotiation with the existing facility team’s working patterns.
You can view the full job spec on our current vacancies page on our website.
About You
We are looking for the successful candidate to be able to demonstrate working within organisational processes and procedures and have the ability to provide a high level of service and a positive, “can-do” attitude.
Time management skills and a willingness to undertake regular training are a must. Due to the nature of the business, a knowledge of security and overall health and safety is important, and you must be flexible to participate in out-of-hours alarm call out rotas. A high level of customer care and service is required at all times.
A level of IT skills is essential for this role, as is a good level of fitness due to the physically demanding nature of the job.
