Are you a proactive, hands-on maintenance professional ready to ensure site security, safety, and operational efficiency within a busy secondary school in the South East?

  • Welcoming, community-focused secondary school in Oxford

  • School Caretaker to manage daily building security, repairs, and compliance logs

Senior leaders prioritize balanced workloads, visible administrative support, and an open management track. Staff benefit from outstanding facilities and fully funded training opportunities (including manual handling, working at heights, and COSHH compliance).

Experience and Qualifications

  • Practical experience in building maintenance, school caretaking, or a relevant trade discipline

  • Hands-on DIY skills across minor joinery, plumbing, redecoration, and general repairs

  • Sound working knowledge of basic safety standards, manual handling, and safe chemical storage
