Our colleagues’ wellbeing is at the heart of everything we do at OFG, so we’re always looking for new ways to improve everyone’s work/life balance. We’re taking part in a trial of the 4-Day Working Week, meaning that you could be working one day less a week (or equivalent).

Job Title: School Cleaner

Location: Red Kite School, Princes Risborough

Salary: £22,000 per annum dependent on experience (not pro-rata, pre-tax take home salary)

Hours: 37.5 hours per week; Monday to Friday

Contract: Permanent, Term Time Only

UK Applicants only. This role does not offer sponsorship.

Can you enrich the lives of young people as a Cleaner? We are looking for responsible, caring School Cleaner to join our fantastic team at Red Kite School, Princes Risborough.

About the role

As Domestic Assistant/School Cleaner, you will help support our pupils and young people in their daily lives, ensuring our facilities are well prepared to keep them, comfortable and healthy.

Our Cleaners carry out an essential role to maintain the standards of cleanliness required by the pupils and young people in our care. You will take pride in ensuring domestic duties including vacuuming, mopping, rubbish removal, dusting and cleaning are carried out to the highest standards.

When it comes to looking after our pupils, we never settle for second best. We are looking for a Cleaner who shares our vision to build incredible futures by empowering vulnerable young people in the UK, to be happy and to make their way in the world.

Previous experience in a similar setting would be great but isn’t essential as full training will be given, and the right motivation, personal qualities and levels of resilience are just as important. These roles are ideal for people working in customer facing industries including retail, hospitality, and leisure, looking for a new role that makes a real difference to pupil’s lives and futures.

You will be quality focused, efficient, able to work at pace, and motivated to help us provide a safe, caring environment where every pupil can thrive.
