On behalf of Greenhead College, thank you for your interest in the post of Cleaner. We are pleased that you are considering Greenhead College as the next stage in your career, and we hope, subject to matching our criteria, you will apply.

Greenhead College is located on an attractive campus close to Huddersfield town centre, adjacent to the picturesque Greenhead Park. We are a short drive from the M62 and within walking distance of the train and bus station. Therefore, the College is an easy commute from much of the Northwest and Yorkshire.

Approximately 2850 students attend the College studying predominantly A Level courses across 35 subjects, and the College has ambition to grow to at least 2900 students by 2025-26. The academic structure of the College is based on Heads of Curriculum who are subject specialists. The College also maintains a unique tutorial system, with all Personal Tutors being fully qualified teachers, highly experienced in pastoral care, careers guidance and trained in Mental Health First Aid. Students are also offered numerous extra-curricular enrichment activities and a comprehensive programme of projects and work placement opportunities as part of our ‘Step Into Your Future’ scheme.

In March 2025, OFSTED once again graded the College as ‘Outstanding’ and as making a strong contribution to skills needs, with no areas of weakness identified. In July 2024 the College secured the Further Education Mental Health Gold Award, due to the level of support it provides to both students and staff. Both the Ofsted outcome and the Mental Health award recognise the resilience, ambition and success of our students, and the hard work and support provide by all staff, irrespective of their role.

The College is a great place to work, with a warm, inclusive atmosphere existing between students and staff. Our staff are recognised for their hard work and are encouraged to inspire each another, and to develop and grow. We are proud to have a strong and able College Leadership Team, and a highly experienced Board, who work collaboratively to deliver the College’s purpose and principles, and strategic objectives.
