Job description

A thriving secondary school in Manchester is looking to appoint a dedicated Facilities Officer to join its premises team on a full-time, permanent basis with an ASAP start.

This is an exciting opportunity for a practical and proactive individual who enjoys variety in their day and takes pride in maintaining high-quality facilities. Working as part of a supportive team, you'll help ensure the school provides a safe, secure, and well-maintained environment for pupils, staff, and visitors.

The Role

Reporting to the Site Manager, you'll support the day-to-day operation of the school site, helping to ensure the buildings and grounds remain safe, compliant, and presented to a high standard.

Your responsibilities will include:

  • Assisting with the opening and closing of the school site

  • Carrying out routine maintenance and minor repairs

  • Completing regular site inspections and reporting maintenance issues

  • Supporting Health & Safety, fire safety, asbestos, and legionella compliance procedures

  • Assisting with the supervision of contractors working on site

  • Preparing classrooms, halls, and outdoor spaces for school events and activities

  • Helping maintain the cleanliness, security, and appearance of the school grounds

  • Supporting planned maintenance projects throughout the year

The Successful Candidate

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

The successful candidate will be reliable, organised, and able to work both independently and as part of a team. You'll have good practical maintenance skills, a proactive approach to problem-solving, and an understanding of Health & Safety responsibilities within a busy working environment.

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

  • £27,000–£31,000 per annum

  • Full-time, permanent position

  • ASAP start

  • Local Government Pension Scheme

  • Ongoing training and professional development

  • Employee Assistance Programme

  • Free on-site parking
