Secondary School
Lincoln
Full-time, Permanent
As Soon As Possible Start
Competitive Salary
This is an excellent opportunity for someone with experience in school premises, facilities, estates, caretaking or a similar operational environment who enjoys taking responsibility for the day-to-day running of a busy site.
You will play an important role in ensuring the school's buildings, grounds and facilities remain safe, secure, clean and fully operational for students, staff and visitors.
Site Supervisor - School Information
The school is a well-established Secondary School in Lincoln with a strong sense of community and a clear commitment to providing students with a safe and positive environment in which to learn.
The site is used throughout the school day by students, teachers, support staff, visitors and contractors, meaning the premises team plays an essential part in keeping everything running smoothly.
The successful candidate will work closely with the school's leadership and operations teams and will be expected to take ownership of day-to-day site issues.
The school values staff who are practical, dependable and able to identify problems before they become significant issues.
You will need to be comfortable working independently while also communicating effectively with colleagues and external contractors.
Site Supervisor - The Role
Your responsibilities will include:
Supporting the day-to-day management of the school site
Ensuring buildings are safe and secure
Completing regular site inspections
Checking classrooms and communal areas
Monitoring the condition of school buildings
Reporting maintenance issues
Carrying out minor repairs where appropriate
Supporting planned and reactive maintenance
Monitoring heating, lighting and other building systems
Checking fire safety equipment
Supporting emergency procedures
Maintaining accurate site records
Monitoring contractors working on site
Liaising with external maintenance providers
Supporting deliveries
Managing access to the site
Assisting with opening and securing buildings

Monitoring school grounds
Supporting health and safety procedures
Ensuring site areas are kept presentable
Assisting with room setups
Supporting school events
Moving furniture and equipment where required
Responding promptly to site-related issues
Reporting significant concerns to senior staff
The role will involve a combination of practical work, routine checks, organisation and communication.
Site Supervisor - Health and Safety
Health and safety will be central to the position.
You will be expected to identify potential hazards and report or address them appropriately.
The successful candidate should understand the importance of maintaining clear walkways, safe facilities, secure buildings and appropriate storage arrangements.
You may also support routine checks relating to fire safety, water systems, emergency lighting and other premises requirements, depending on the school's arrangements.
You should be comfortable maintaining records and ensuring issues are followed up rather than simply reported.
Site Supervisor - Maintenance
The school is looking for someone who is practical and confident dealing with everyday premises issues.
This could include basic repairs, furniture adjustments, replacing fittings, responding to minor faults and helping staff resolve problems with classrooms or shared spaces.
You will not necessarily be expected to be a qualified tradesperson, but practical experience and a willingness to undertake appropriate minor maintenance will be important.
Where specialist contractors are required, you will help coordinate access and ensure work is completed appropriately.
Site Supervisor - Contractors and External Services
The successful candidate will have regular contact with contractors and service providers.
You will need to communicate clearly about access arrangements, work requirements and any issues identified on site.
You should be able to monitor contractors professionally and raise concerns where work has not been completed to the required standard.
Good organisation will be essential, particularly when several maintenance tasks are being dealt with simultaneously.
Site Supervisor - School Events and Daily Operations
Schools are busy environments, and the premises team supports far more than basic maintenance.
You may be involved in preparing rooms for meetings, examinations, performances, parents' evenings and other events.
You may also assist with moving equipment, setting up furniture and ensuring spaces are ready for use.
Flexibility will therefore be important.
There may be occasions when priorities change quickly, and you will need to respond without losing sight of safety and operational requirements.
Site Supervisor - Experience and Requirements
The ideal candidate will have:
Previous premises, facilities or caretaking experience
Experience within a school or similar environment desirable
Good practical maintenance skills
Strong health and safety awareness
Ability to complete site inspections
Good organisational skills
Excellent attention to detail
Ability to work independently
Strong communication skills
Ability to manage contractors
Reliable and dependable approach
Ability to respond calmly to unexpected issues
Good record-keeping skills
Flexible attitude
Commitment to maintaining a safe environment
Ability to work effectively as part of a team
A relevant qualification in facilities management, maintenance, health and safety or a related field would be advantageous.
Site Supervisor - What the School Offers
You will become an important member of the school's operational team and will have the opportunity to develop your experience across premises, facilities and school operations.
The school provides a professional environment where reliable support staff are valued for the contribution they make to the wider school community.
This role would suit someone looking for a stable, long-term position where every day brings a practical challenge to solve.
