Start Date As Soon As Possible
We are seeking an enthusiastic, team‑oriented Facilities Officer to join our friendly and well‑established team of five. As one of two Facilities Officers reporting to the Senior Facilities Officer, you will play a vital role in all aspects of site security and maintenance, ensuring that the school remains safe, secure, and well‑maintained for pupils,staff, and visitors in line with our service standards.
The successful candidate will have proven experience in a similar role, ideally within an educational or hospitality environment. You will hold relevant facilities‑related qualifications, including IOSHH and MIDAS (or be willing to undertake these). As the role includes occasional driving of the school minibus, you must be a confident driver with a clean licence. If you do not hold a D1 licence, we will support you through MIDAS training.
We would be particularly interested in hearing from candidates with practical skills in caretaking, plumbing, carpentry/joinery, painting, or IEE wiring regulations. However, there are opportunities to attend relevant courses as part of our commitment to continuous professional development.
Flexibility is essential to support our busy lettings programme, and as this is a physically active role across a wide campus (see attached map), you will need to be able to meet the physical demands of the position.
About The School
Nottingham Girls’ High School is part of the Girls' Day School Trust (GDST), an independent girls’ day school known for academic excellence, strong pastoral care, and a broad range of co‑curricular opportunities.
Our campus straddles Arboretum Street and borders both Nottingham Arboretum and the Forest Recreation Ground. We are easily accessible via major city routes including the A52 and A60, with a tram stop less than a 10‑minute walk away.
