Permanent, full-time

Would you like to work in a fast-paced environment, where you work closely with team members and are responsible for maintaining the general upkeep of our College?

We are looking for someone who is proactive and will take pride in the look and feel of the property – ensuring the standard is great for our staff and members. Ideally with some experience of maintenance or facilities with a proactive approach to solving and taking ownership of problems. A relevant trade would give you the edge but is not essential.

You will be taking responsibility for ensuring that the College is exceptionally well-maintained, well-presented and functional.  Duties include ensuring that health and safety standards are met, first line reactive repairs and maintenance is addressed, minor redecoration and accompanying contractors where necessary, and conducting daily building checks.  Events roles include ensuring that meeting spaces are set up ready for the day’s events, as well as being present for some events that are out of working hours.

So, if you are currently looking for an exciting new opportunity where no two days are the same, we would love to hear from you.

The College values a diverse workforce and welcomes applications from all sections of the community, reflecting the population it serves.

We are committed to building and maintaining an inclusive and supportive culture, a place where we can all be ourselves and succeed on merit.  We aim to promote a more inclusive environment, which attracts all candidates and signals our commitment to celebrate and promote diversity.

We will provide appropriate reasonable adjustments for candidates who may have a disability.

We only recruit the best and in return for your commitment the College offers an attractive salary and benefits.

We operate a hybrid working model of on-site and working from home/remote, which helps to ensure a flexible work life balance.

We welcome applications from all sections of the Community.
