Are you a hands-on individual who takes pride in creating a safe, welcoming environment?

At St Luke’s, our building is more than just bricks and mortar—it’s a place where children grow, learn, and flourish within a supportive Christian ethos. We are looking for a dedicated and versatile School Caretaker to join our team and keep our school running smoothly.

The Role

As the heartbeat of our school site, you will be responsible for:

• Site Security: Opening and closing the school, ensuring a safe start and end to the day.
• Maintenance & Repairs: Handling general DIY tasks, from fixing a leaky tap to freshening up paintwork.
• Health & Safety: Conducting regular checks (fire alarms, water testing) to keep our staff and pupils safe.
• Grounds Upkeep: Ensuring our outdoor spaces are tidy, safe, and ready for play.

About You

We are looking for someone who is:

• Practical & Proactive: You see a job that needs doing and you get it done.
• Reliable: You understand the importance of a secure and well-maintained school.
• Community-Minded: You are happy to work alongside staff, children and parents.
• Flexible: You can adapt to the "unexpected" moments that come with school life.

Why Join Us?

In return, we offer a friendly working environment where your contribution is truly valued, and the chance to be a key part of our school family.
