Help Shape and Maintain Outstanding Nurseries Across the East Midlands

At St. George’s Nursery Group, we believe that exceptional environments create exceptional experiences for children.

We’re looking for an experienced, hands-on Head of Maintenance & Estates to take ownership of the maintenance, safety, and development of our growing nursery estate across the East Midlands. This is an exciting opportunity for someone who enjoys combining practical maintenance work with leadership, planning, and project management.

With over 30 years of experience in early years education and recognised as one of the Top 20 Nursery Groups in 2024, we are proud of the supportive, family-focused culture we’ve built. As we continue to expand through new nurseries and acquisitions, you’ll play a key role in ensuring every setting remains safe, welcoming, compliant, and maintained to the highest standards.

This role is ideal for someone who enjoys variety, takes pride in their work, and wants to make a real difference across multiple nursery settings.

Why You’ll Love Working With Us

No two days are ever the same.

You’ll have the opportunity to work across ten nurseries, leading improvements, solving problems, supporting our teams, and helping create inspiring environments where children can learn, play and thrive.

You’ll join a supportive, ambitious and friendly organisation where your experience, ideas and leadership are genuinely valued. Many of our employees have been with us for over 15 years, reflecting the positive culture and long-term career opportunities we offer.

Your Role

As Head of Maintenance & Estates, you will:

– Lead the maintenance and upkeep of all nursery buildings, gardens and outdoor play areas across our ten sites.
– Carry out a wide range of hands-on maintenance including joinery, decorating, basic plumbing, repairs and general building works.
– Manage reactive maintenance quickly and effectively, ensuring minimal disruption to nursery operations.
– Develop and manage a Planned Preventative Maintenance (PPM) programme across all settings.
– Plan, prioritise and monitor all maintenance jobs, ensuring work is completed safely, efficiently and to a high standard.
– Lead and support the in-house maintenance team, allocating work across multiple sites.
– Manage external contractors, obtain quotations, oversee works and ensure quality standards are met.
– Carry out site inspections, risk assessments and health & safety audits.
What We’re Looking For

We’d love to hear from you if you have:

– Proven experience within maintenance, facilities, estates or property management.
– Excellent practical maintenance skills across a variety of trades.
– Experience leading maintenance teams and coordinating contractors.
– Strong organisational skills with the ability to manage multiple projects across different locations.
– Good knowledge of health & safety legislation and building compliance.
– Experience managing planned maintenance schedules and refurbishment projects.
– Excellent communication and problem-solving skills.
– A proactive, reliable and self-motivated approach.
– Full UK Driving Licence and willingness to travel regularly across Leicester, Nottingham and Northampton.
– Enhanced DBS (or willingness to obtain one).
Desirable

– Trade qualifications in carpentry, plumbing, electrical or general building.
– IOSH, NEBOSH or other Health & Safety qualification.
– Experience within nurseries, schools, healthcare or another regulated environment.
– Experience managing new site developments or large refurbishment programmes.
Salary & Working Pattern

Benefits & Rewards

We believe in rewarding and investing in our people, which is why we offer:

– Competitive salary and bonus package
– Company van
– Fuel and mileage allowance
– Company mobile phone
– Generous holiday entitlement
– Thorough induction and onboarding programme
– In-house training and online learning platform
– Paid annual Wellbeing Day
– Free confidential counselling and wellbeing support
– Pension scheme
– Childcare discounts
– £500 Welcome Bonus
