Be The Person Who Keeps Our School Thriving.
Do you take pride in fixing things, solving problems and creating spaces that people love to be in?
We're looking for a hands-on, dependable Site Assistant to help keep our vibrant school safe, secure and welcoming for more than 480 children every day. This is far more than a maintenance role. You'll be a valued member of our school community, helping to create an environment where children can learn, grow and flourish.
What Makes This Role Special?
- Every day is different
- Be part of a friendly and supportive school family
- Enjoy a role where your work genuinely matters
- Help create a safe and inspiring environment for children
- Access excellent training, development and wellbeing support
- Opportunities to grow your career within The Marches Academy Trust
The Role
From carrying out repairs and site maintenance to supporting school events, security checks and helping with educational visits, you'll play a vital role behind the scenes that keeps our school running smoothly.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
