What skills and experience we're looking for
The Governing Body of St Joseph’s RC Primary School are seeking to appoint an exceptional caretaker for this friendly and forward thinking school. An approachable, reliable and flexible person is required for undertaking this rewarding and busy role within our school. We require a team player with a ‘can do’ attitude who is a handy problem-solver, well–organised and thorough in their work.
The post requires a competent individual who will keep site security at the forefront, operate alarm systems as well as respond to possible call outs and provide emergency access to the site. The position requires effective maintenance of the building and grounds. Routine duties are to keep the site orderly, clean and safe with daily, weekly and monthly checks as set out through Health and Safety guidance (e.g. emergency lighting checks, water temperature checks, playground equipment checks, litter-picking, leaf fall removal, recycling and waste arrangements, topping up soap and towels, decorating and maintenance of the flooring etc.). There may be other jobs which are needed from time to time such as new furniture assembly, painting, covering school events or lettings.
Experience of the caretaking, site security, maintenance would be desirable. Our building is old and requires care and sometimes repair so a handyperson knowhow is essential. A willingness to undertake appropriate training is also essential.
Having asbestos awareness training would be an advantage, but training can be arranged.
A commitment to safe working so that we can empower pupils to achieve success is essential. The school is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.
