Job description

Are you a proactive, hands-on maintenance technician seeking a stable, highly rewarding caretaking role within a supportive secondary school environment? This could be an exceptional opportunity to join an active campus premises team in East Anglia.

  • Welcoming, community-focused 11 to 18 secondary school in Norwich

  • School Caretaker managing site security, reactive repairs, and statutory safety checks

  • Full-time, permanent role (Shift-Pattern Framework) | ASAP Start

Our client is seeking a practical, reliable, and hardworking School Caretaker to join their dedicated campus facilities department immediately. Operating on a rotating shift pattern (early morning unlocks or late evening lockups), this role is ideal for a skilled technician, maintenance professional, or handy trade specialist looking for a secure, team-oriented working environment.

The successful candidate will share day-to-day responsibility for the physical security, safety, and mechanical efficiency of the school campus. Key duties include conducting morning security sweeps, carrying out first-line reactive fabric repairs (minor plumbing, carpentry, redecoration, and lock fixes), coordinating hall setups for assemblies and exam seasons, and logging routine statutory safety checks—including weekly fire alarm tests, emergency lighting checks, and water hygiene temperature logs.

School Information

This vibrant secondary school in Norwich is known for its friendly working environment, visible leadership support, and high regard for support faculty. Staff benefit from modern, well-equipped workshops, digital helpdesk systems, 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 (joinery, plumbing, electrical)

  • Hands-on DIY skills across general property repairs, redecoration, and minor structural maintenance

  • Sound working knowledge of basic health and safety regulations, COSHH frameworks, and safe chemical storage

  • Dependable work ethic, flexible approach to rotating shifts, and basic computer literacy to update digital work logs
