Do you like variety, young people and working as part of a fantastic team? If the answer is yes then this role might be for you. 

The South Wolds Academy & Sixth Form is seeking to fill three Housekeeping roles.

One role is full time, working 37 hours per week. The hours of work will be Monday to Thursday 10.30 am - 6.30 pm and Friday 10.30 am - 6.00 pm. This includes a 30-minute unpaid lunch break. 

Two roles are part time, working 21 hours per week. The hours of work will be Monday to Thursday 2.15 pm - 6.30 pm and Friday 2.00 pm - 6.00 pm.

Finally, you must be a good communicator, like working around young people and always willing to help your team when the unexpected happens. 

We will train you in the specific aspects of the job you just need to bring a willingness to learn and have a friendly and approachable manner.
