Contract: Temp to Perm
Pay:£32,958 , with additional on-call allowances

We're looking for a hands-on, reliable Maintenance Operative to join a friendly facilities team supporting school sites across West Dunbartonshire. This is a temp-to-perm role, ideal for someone who's experienced in school janitorial work and enjoys a varied day where no two tasks are the same.

You'll play a key part in keeping school buildings safe, secure, and running smoothly - from general maintenance to supporting with opening/locking up and handling minor repairs.

What You'll Be Doing:
  • Day-to-day janitorial duties and general maintenance

  • Basic repair work and upkeep of school grounds

  • Helping to open/close school buildings

  • Assisting with fire alarm and sprinkler system checks (experience in this area is a bonus)

  • Taking part in an on-call rota (paid allowance provided)

  • Being a friendly, helpful point of contact for staff on-site

What We're Looking For:
  • Must live in West Dunbartonshire - due to on-call requirements, you'll need to be within a 30-minute response time

  • A full UK driving licence - with access to a vehicle

  • Previous experience in school maintenance or janitorial work

  • Confident working independently and taking initiative

  • PVG preferred, but not essential - we can help with this if needed

  • Bonus if you've worked with alarm or sprinkler systems

What You'll Get:
  • A stable role with the potential to become permanent

  • Paid on-call duties

  • Supportive team environment

  • Set hours that follow the school calendar

  • A role where your work really makes a difference day to day
