A thriving secondary school in Salford is seeking a Caretaker to join the premises team from September 2026 on a full-time, long-term basis.
This is an excellent opportunity for someone with caretaking, maintenance, or facilities experience who enjoys practical work and wants to make a real contribution to the smooth running of a busy school.
The Role
Working as part of the premises team, you'll help ensure the school remains safe, secure, and well maintained for pupils, staff, and visitors.
Responsibilities include:
Opening and locking the school site
Carrying out planned maintenance and minor repairs
Completing routine health and safety inspections
Maintaining the school buildings and outdoor areas
Preparing classrooms and halls for school events
Supporting contractors and monitoring site access
Reporting maintenance issues and assisting with site compliance
