Estates Assistant (Temporary)

Estates Assistant

Temporary

Location: the South West

Start date: November 2026

About the Role

Working with a further education provider, you'll help keep the site safe, tidy and ready for learners and staff to use each day. It's a practical, hands-on role where you'll be out and about across the premises rather than behind a desk.

You'll work as part of the estates team, turning your hand to whatever the day needs and taking pride in a well-presented environment.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Supporting the day-to-day upkeep and presentation of the premises.
• Carrying out basic maintenance and minor repairs.
• Setting up rooms and moving furniture and equipment as required.
• Reporting faults, hazards and maintenance issues promptly.
• Supporting health and safety standards across the site.

What We're Looking For

Essential:

• A practical, hands-on approach and willingness to turn your hand to a range of tasks
• Ability to work well as part of a team and on your own initiative
• A reliable, flexible attitude
• Awareness of health and safety in a working environment

Desirable (but not essential):

• Previous estates, facilities or caretaking experience
• Experience of working in an education setting

If you're ready to bring your practical skills to a role where the site you look after makes a real difference to learners, we'd love to hear from you.
