Job description

Coombe Dean School is seeking to appoint a reliable Cleaner to join our site team and help maintain a clean, safe and welcoming environment for pupils, staff and visitors. The role involves carrying out scheduled cleaning duties across classrooms, offices, corridors and shared areas, using cleaning equipment safely and effectively, and taking pride in maintaining high standards across the school. The successful candidate will be dependable, thorough and able to work well as part of a team. Previous cleaning experience is helpful, but we would also welcome applications from candidates with the right work ethic, attention to detail and commitment to high standards. School-based experience is not essential if you can demonstrate transferable experience and a positive approach. This is an opportunity to play an important part in the daily life of the school by helping to provide an environment where pupils and staff can thrive. As an employer, we can offer a supportive working environment, stable employment, pension and leave benefits, and the chance to be part of a team whose work is genuinely valued. We know that cleaning roles are essential to the safe and effective running of a school, and we want applicants to understand that this contribution matters. The role may particularly appeal to someone seeking dependable work, a clear routine, and the satisfaction of maintaining high standards in a setting that serves the local community. We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. An enhanced DBS disclosure is required for this post. Information about our key policies is available at: Coombe Dean School - Policies and Documents (this includes our DBS Policy, Child Protection and Safeguarding Policy, and Recruitment and Selection Policy).
