Are you a conscientious, thorough and reliable person who takes pride in maintaining high standards? If so, we would love to hear from you. We are looking for an Evening Cleaner to join our team at Corby Business Academy. This is a vital role within our Academy and plays an important part in ensuring the smooth and effective running of the school. The role is physically demanding and involves cleaning to a consistently high standard, as well as lifting and moving furniture when required. You will be responsible for maintaining a clean, safe and hygienic environment across all areas of the school, including classrooms, offices, food technology, toilets, the restaurant and other communal areas. The successful candidate will be required to work during term time, plus an additional three weeks during the school holidays. This role would suit someone who prefers to start their working day in the afternoon, enjoys working as part of a team and takes genuine pride in their work. If you have excellent standards, a positive attitude and an eye for detail, we would be delighted to hear from you.

The Site Team plays a vital role in the smooth and effective running of the Academy. Led by the Site Manager and supported by two Site Supervisors, the team is responsible for ensuring that our facilities are safe, clean, welcoming and maintained to the highest standards. Our cleaning service is delivered in-house by a dedicated team of morning and evening cleaners, and we are now looking to strengthen our evening provision.

The Academy typically becomes quieter from around 4.00pm, once our after-school clubs have finished, providing an ideal opportunity for the evening cleaning team to focus on maintaining the highest standards across the site. All members of the Site Team undertake annual mandatory training, including COSHH training, ensuring that everyone has the knowledge and skills required to carry out their role safely and effectively.

We are proud of our cohesive and supportive team, where colleagues work together, look out for one another and share a genuine passion for keeping the Academy looking its best. Everyone takes pride in their contribution and understands the important difference their work makes to our school community. If you join us, you will be getting more than just a job — you will become part of a team that values, supports and cares about you.
