Completing regular inspections of buildings, grounds, vehicles and equipment
Undertaking repairs, basic maintenance and reporting issues needing specialist contractors

Setting up rooms for exams, events and meetings
Winter gritting and snow clearance
Car park marshalling for large events
Helping with cleaning tasks when needed
Keeping facilities areas clean, tidy and safe …all with a helpful, flexible ‘can-do’ attitude.
This is a full-time, permanent role. From time to time, some evenings and occasional weekend work may be required, depending on college needs.
A full, clean driving licence is essential, as you’ll sometimes drive college vehicles.
