We are looking for a reliable and motivated individual to join our friendly staff team and take pride in the maintenance of our exceptional buildings and grounds. We are particularly proud of our school environment, having won Gold awards at Enfield In Bloom for several consecutive years, so we are looking for someone with great passion and an eye for detail to keep our grounds and buildings looking as good as they possibly can.

The ideal candidate will take a keen interest in the maintenance of our premises and be proactive in ensuring their continual enhancement and improvement. The Assistant Site Manager role is very health and safety oriented, so a knowledge of relevant issues and their corresponding legislation (e.g., fire safety, asbestos, legionella, etc.) would be a definite advantage. The role will include general day-to-day maintenance and repairs, monitoring the condition of the site and buildings, conducting routine checks and recording these in the site management log books, liaising with contractors regarding works and following through to completion, sourcing and placing orders for resources, reporting issues to the Head Teacher/School Business Manager and ensuring the whole site is kept to an excellent standard. 

You will need to be flexible in your approach to work, be able to work using your own initiative and enjoy being part of a close-knit team. You will work alongside our current Site Manager assisting in the duties as detailed above in order to provide an excellent standard of day-to-day, and long term, preventative maintenance. Occasional weekend and evening work to manage lettings will be part of this role, as well as providing cover for the Site Manager’s absence, but overtime will be paid on these occasions where the maximum weekly hours are exceeded. 

 

Visits to the school are warmly welcomed by appointment. Application forms are available via Enfield Council’s Applicant Tracking System. The link can be found below, or via our school website’s Vacancy page. Please note that all applications must be submitted via this system – emailed and posted applications will no longer be accepted; neither will CVs and incomplete application forms.
