Job description
DescriptionEmployerLocation

The Trust has a unique opportunity for a Peripatetic Site Assistant to join the team and provide quality maintenance and caretaking support at the Josephine Butler Campus in Ashington.

This role is perfect for a skilled professional that is looking for a rewarding career in an environment that provides variety and purpose. The ideal candidate will help ensure that the school's building, grounds and facilities are safe, secure, and well maintained at all times.

Josephine Butler is our largest campus so this is quite a busy role, with additional duties in areas such as the hydro-pool, lettings, and the operation of BMS systems.

The role will be focused on practical, hands-on maintenance and DIY repairs that ensure site presentation and safety. No two days are the same, and the role may require flexibility to travel between different sites, so a full UK driving licence is essential.

Please note, this role is 37 hours per week, all year round.

Due to other changes within the Trust, there are also Site Assistant vacancies available at some of our Primary schools in and around Ashington. These roles are also full time, band 4 (£26,403 - £28,142). If you are interested in a Primary Site Assistant position, please specify this on your application form.

Main Responsibilities:

  • General maintenance, such as basic plumbing, joinery, fixing work and minor electrical tasks (e.g. changing lightbulbs)
  • Opening and closing the school buildings, conducting routine security/alarm checks, and responding to emergency call outs.
  • Conduct essential safety checks such as emergency lighting tests, water monitoring, and fire alarm testing.
  • Keep external areas clean, safe and clear of debris such as leaves and branches. This also includes gritting and snow clearance during bad weather.
  • Support with daily school operations, such as setting up rooms and halls for events such as parents evening, exams, and assemblies.

Our Benefits

  • An excellent pension scheme with a generous employer contribution from the Trust.
  • 24/7 access to our Employee Assistance Programme, providing confidential wellbeing and support services.
  • Comprehensive mental health and wellbeing support for all staff through Dittolo.
  • Access to The Nest, our childcare provision in Ashington and Newbiggin-by-the-Sea, offering both paid and free 30-hour places for eligible families.
  • CPD opportunities with support from across the Trust.
  • Gym membership discounts, with reduced rates at Sculpt Ashington and Places Leisure.
  • Eligibility for a Blue Light Card, giving Trust staff exclusive discounts at major retailers including Apple, JD Sports and TUI.

If you are ready for a new challenge and would like to work in a hands-on role, we would love to hear from you!
