Do you take pride in creating safe, clean, and inspiring environments? Are you proactive, organised, and ready to make a real difference every day? If so, this could be the perfect role for you!

We are looking for a dedicated Site Manager to join our school team. This is a fantastic opportunity to play a key role in ensuring our school is a welcoming, secure, and well-maintained space where children can thrive.

The School:

Harborne Primary school is a large four form entry primary school based over two sites. Our buildings provide the perfect environment for our children to thrive. 

This is an exciting time to join our community. With 807 wonderful pupils across two vibrant sites, an embryonic senior leadership team, a committed and happy staff team, and a shared belief in the potential of every child.

Harborne Primary offers a rewarding and purposeful environment in which to make a significant impact. We are looking for someone who will embrace the challenge, contribute to our culture of high expectations, and play a central role in shaping the future direction of the school.

The role:

We are seeking to recruit an experienced, hands-on manager to oversee our site and premises team. The role is varied, but ultimately, we want you to oversee and develop the site so that we can realise its potential for our students and staff. The work involves carrying out the day-to-day duties of running the site as well as managing lettings, grounds & general maintenance, minor repairs and managing premises staff.

 The person:

Our ideal candidate is able to offer successful experience of managing a site including leading a team as well as solid understanding of building regulations and Health & Safety. Experience of working in a school is not essential, however sound computer skills and a practical, hands-on approach to work are. A trade background is desirable. It can be hectic at times, so you’ll need to be able to work calmly and be well organised to get the job done.
