We are seeking a reliable and dedicated Cleaner to join our team within the Eastern Education Group. You will be responsible for maintaining high standards of cleanliness and hygiene across the school to ensure a pleasant and safe environment for students, staff, and visitors. Your duties will include general cleaning, waste disposal, floor care, sanitisation of high-touch areas, and scheduled deep cleans, all in accordance with our health and safety procedures.
You will work closely with other cleaning staff, administrative teams, and occasionally liaise with external contractors.

If you are committed to maintaining a clean, safe, and welcoming school environment and are adaptable to changing schedules and tasks, we’d love to hear from you. This is a rewarding opportunity to play a key role in supporting the day-to-day running of the school.
