We're looking for a dedicated Caretaker to join our friendly Site Team. This is far more than a maintenance role – you'll be a key member of our school community, helping to ensure our pupils and staff enjoy a safe, secure and welcoming environment every day.

What you'll be doing

You'll play an important role in keeping the school operating smoothly by:

Carrying out planned and reactive maintenance across the school.
Ensuring the site is safe, secure and ready each day for pupils and staff.
Maintaining our grounds and external areas to a high standard.
Driving the school minibus for educational visits and school activities when required.
Helping with the practical side of school events and daily operations.
Responding calmly and effectively to unexpected maintenance issues when they arise.

About you

We're looking for someone who:

Enjoys practical, hands-on work and takes pride in maintaining high standards.
Has experience in caretaking, property maintenance or a similar role.
Is organised, reliable and able to prioritise a varied workload.
Understands the importance of health & safety, compliance and safeguarding.
Works well independently and as part of a close-knit team.
Has excellent communication skills and enjoys helping others.
Holds a full UK driving licence and is willing to obtain a D1 licence if required (training will be provided).

Why join St. Andrew's?

As well as joining a supportive and welcoming team, you'll benefit from:

Sociable working hours and an excellent work-life balance.
Minimal evening and weekend working.
Ongoing training and professional development.
Supportive leadership who genuinely value their staff.
Free school lunches during term time.
The opportunity to make a visible difference every single day.

Join our team

If you're looking for a rewarding role where your work is appreciated and where you'll become an important part of a friendly school community, we'd love to receive your application.

A full list of job objectives and requirements can be found in the Job Description on our website.

Deadline for applications: midnight 31 August. Please note, we reserve the right to close our vacancies early if sufficient applications are received.

Interview details: Date to be confirmed, interviews will be onsite at St Andrew's School.

How to apply: To be considered for this vacancy, applicants are required to complete and submit a fully completed application form through our edt website.

Please note that we are unable to offer sponsorship for this position. Candidates must already have the right to work in the UK at the time of application.

St. Andrew’s School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children. Successful applicants will be required to undergo child protection screening appropriate to the post, including checks with past employers and the Disclosure and Barring Service (Enhanced DBS Check).

Edt is a proud Disability Confident Leader. We take practical steps to ensure that disability inclusion is not only part of our values but part of our everyday actions. We are committed to creating a working environment where disabled employees are supported, valued, and empowered to thrive in their role. If you are disabled or require specific adjustments during the application process, please do let us know how we can support you.

We understand that artificial intelligence (AI) tools (such as ChatGPT) can be helpful when applying for jobs – especially for those who require additional support during the recruitment process. However, while you may decide to use AI tools for ideas or pointers, we request that you do not rely heavily on them when answering questions. We are looking for responses that are personal to you, including details and examples of your abilities and work experience to date, and we consider copying and pasting AI-generated responses to be a misuse of AI tools. Likewise, we do not use AI-driven recruitment screening software, because we value authenticity and prefer to make personal connections with our candidates. If you have used AI to support your application – including in emails and responses to questions – please disclose this on your application form. If you would like clarification on how AI can be used in your application to edt, please contact the Recruitment team via the edt website.

About the organisation

St Andrew's in Rochester, Kent, is a co-educational non-selective school for children from 3 to 11. It was founded in 1951 with clear and simple aims: to offer an affordable education with the emphasis on the ‘three Rs’ – reading, writing and arithmetic – and to promote traditional values.

Under the proprietorship of edt, which acquired the school in 1999, St. Andrew’s has flourished and has held dear its values – even though society may have changed around it. The school is renowned for its excellent pastoral care and its unfailing and outstanding success in placing pupils at prestigious grammar schools.
