What skills and experience we're looking for

We are looking to appoint an enthusiastic and dedicated Cleaner with good all-round skills and a

flexible approach to duties to work as part of our team.

We are hoping to find a keen, flexible team member who will be able to support our staff and

children by ensuring that the working environment is kept clean, safe, tidy and welcoming. In the

cleaning role you will be required to undertake general cleaning duties to ensure the school is kept

in a clean and hygienic condition and that all areas are cleaned to the standard/specification given.

Cleaning experience is preferred but not essential and experience of cleaning in a school would be

an advantage, however, the ability to communicate easily with staff and students is essential.

Knowledge of health and safety would be helpful although full training will be provided.
