Job description

A well-established secondary school in Sale is seeking a reliable and proactive Facilities Officer to join its premises team on a full-time, permanent basis with an ASAP start.

If you're someone who enjoys solving problems, working with your hands, and helping to keep a busy environment running smoothly, this is an excellent opportunity to join a supportive school where your work will have a real impact. You'll be part of a friendly team responsible for ensuring the school remains safe, secure, and maintained to an exceptional standard.

The Role

Reporting to the Site Manager, you'll support the day-to-day management of the school site and help deliver an efficient facilities service across the campus.

Key responsibilities include:

  • Opening and closing the school buildings when required

  • Carrying out routine maintenance, repairs, and basic decorating

  • Responding to maintenance requests from staff across the school

  • Assisting with planned preventative maintenance programmes

  • Completing regular Health & Safety inspections and compliance checks

  • Supporting fire safety, legionella, asbestos, and security procedures

  • Supervising contractors and ensuring works are completed safely

  • Setting up classrooms, halls, and outdoor spaces for examinations, events, and school activities

  • Maintaining the presentation of the school buildings and grounds throughout the year

About the School

Situated in the sought-after area of Sale, this successful 11–18 secondary school is recognised for its welcoming atmosphere, strong leadership, and commitment to providing an outstanding environment for both students and staff. The school values teamwork and invests in its facilities to ensure the site remains a safe and inspiring place to learn and work.

The Successful Candidate

Applications are welcomed from experienced Facilities Officers, Premises Assistants, Caretakers, Estates Assistants, Maintenance Technicians, or candidates with transferable experience in facilities, property maintenance, or building services.

You'll be practical, organised, and dependable, with a positive attitude and the ability to work independently as well as part of a team. Experience within a school environment is beneficial but not essential.

As part of the school's safer recruitment procedures, references from your current (or most recent) employer and a previous employer will be required before an interview can be arranged.

Salary & Benefits

  • £28,000–£32,000 per annum

  • Full-time, permanent position

  • ASAP start

  • Local Government Pension Scheme

  • Ongoing training and development opportunities

  • Employee Assistance Programme

  • Free on-site parking

  • Supportive leadership and collaborative working environment

Apply

The school is interviewing as soon as suitable applications are received, so early applications are encouraged.

If you're looking to build your career in school facilities management and want to join a welcoming, well-supported secondary school, we'd love to hear from you. Submit your CV today for immediate consideration.
