About the Role

As a Officer, you'll help keep the day-to-day environment at a further education provider safe, welcoming and well run, supporting staff, learners and visitors across the working day.

You'll be a visible, approachable presence, dealing with issues as they arise and working closely with colleagues across the organisation to make sure the site runs smoothly.

Your responsibilities will include:

  • Maintaining a safe, secure and welcoming environment for learners, staff and visitors.
  • Providing a visible presence across the site and responding to issues as they arise.
  • Supporting learner behaviour, conduct and wellbeing in communal areas.
  • Working with colleagues across teams to support the smooth running of day-to-day operations.

What We're Looking For

Essential:

  • Experience of working with young people or in a customer-facing, site-based role
  • A calm, approachable manner and the confidence to deal with issues as they happen
  • Strong communication and organisational skills
  • A commitment to learner safety and wellbeing

Desirable (but not essential):

  • Previous experience in a further education or school setting

If you're ready to play a visible part in keeping a busy learning environment safe and welcoming, we'd love to hear from you.
