Thank you for your interest in the post of Site Assistant.
Hours: 25 to 30 per week.
Our site team works closely together. Our aim is to provide the best possible learning environment for our students and community, so you will need to be committed to maintaining and improving the school environment, ensuring at all times the health, safety and security of all those who work in, or visit, our school. Working in a school environment does not suit everyone, and you will need to be happy working alongside both students and adults. No two days are the same in a school so you will need to be flexible and adaptable in your work. You will need to be happy to work on your own and as part of a team. You will need to show initiative and be prepared and ready to follow instructions and direction.
Fundamentally, we need someone who is hard working and is knowledgeable about health and safety / security. You will approach the job with a positive, ‘can do and will do’ attitude and be reliable at all times.
You will join a friendly, welcoming and supportive staff team committed to providing the very best educational experience for our pupils.
The successful applicant will:
• Punctual and reliable, with a strong commitment to maintaining high attendance standards and supporting the smooth day-to-day operation of the school site.
• Able to manage their own workload effectively, prioritising tasks and working independently while seeking guidance and support from the Site Manager when required.
• Friendly, approachable and personable, building positive working relationships with staff, students, visitors and contractors.
• Aware of and sensitive to the school environment, understanding the importance of safeguarding, professionalism and maintaining a safe, secure site.
• Proactive and conscientious, taking pride in their work, showing initiative, and helping to maintain a clean, safe and welcoming learning environment for all.
We are a welcoming and inclusive 11-16 school that has, due to its popularity, grown rapidly in size to be oversubscribed from September 2024 with c.750 students on roll. Our mission is ‘Creating and Achieving a Brighter Future’ and we live by our mantra ‘Be Kind, Aspire, Persevere, Achieve’ by providing the very best education for our young people.
We want our students to be equally supported and challenged during the five years they spend with us and for them to enjoy their time with us as we nurture them to become confident, happy and successful young adults. We are deeply ambitious for every individual and upon leaving us, we are determined they will be able to access the very best opportunities in further and higher education.
As a school we want to become ever more outward-looking, broadening our links and partnerships to further develop Maidenhill School as a learning hub for the wider community. The governors and I are clear that we want Maidenhill School to be the ‘school of choice’ for parents and young people.
If you are interested in applying, please complete the application form and submit it by 9.00am on Monday 23rd August 2026.
Maidenhill School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people, and expects all staff, and volunteers, to share the same commitment. This position is subject to an enhanced DBS check.
