St Wilfrid’s Primary School is a Catholic Voluntary Academy for girls and boys from age four to eleven in the south of Sheffield. This is a really special place and a true learning community with shared values, made up of our wonderful children, their families, our parishes and our committed team of staff. The Governors are seeking to appoint a highly motivated, committed and diligent Caretaker to join this wonderful school as part of a job share with an existing part-time post-holder.
Key duties will include key-holding and locking-up and securing the site; over-seeing day to day health and safety, including monitoring and maintaining site safety in adverse weather conditions, e.g. snow and ice, high winds; liaising with contractors; over-seeing general odd jobs and repairs; supporting with maintaining high standards of presentation and cleanliness in the school, through day to day management of on-site cleaners and some cleaning duties.
Previously the role has involved split shifts – morning and evening with a gap in the middle of the day – in order to cover both site preparation/ safety at the start of the day, and locking up at the end of the day. We would be able to discuss flexibility around this in order to secure the right candidate.
We will offer you:
- An exciting opportunity to work in a school with a strong Catholic ethos.
- Wonderful children who enjoy learning at our school, and a friendly, supportive team of colleagues.
- Training and induction to understand the role and feel confident in carrying out the required duties.
The Governors require a school caretaker who:
- Is hard-working and motivated, pays attention to detail and is committed to the school.
- Has an understanding of safeguarding, site security and health and safety, and is willing to undertake training linked to this as required
- Is able to undertake administrative work linked to the role
- Is willing to undertake cleaning duties
- Is keen to be part of a collaborative team of staff
Our school is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children. The post is subject to an enhanced DBS check.
