Trinity Multi Academy Trust is proud to have transformed the life chances of thousands of pupils across its existing academies, and our core values of Empathy, Honesty, Respect and Responsibility run through all aspects of academy life.  Our secondary schools consistently achieve academic results which place them in the top 10% of highest performing schools in the country and receive national and international recognition for the quality of their provision.  

As a trust we were excited to have been chosen by the Department for Education as their approved sponsor to open a new secondary school to support the increasing population of Barnsley.  In September 2021 Trinity Academy St Edward’s opened its doors to a founding cohort of Year 7 students from across the town. 

We are now looking to recruit a Site Assistant to join our successful and hard-working premises team.  This role is crucial to ensuring that all of our children can learn in a safe and effective environment.  Without an immaculate building and grounds and without functioning facilities no one can work or learn effectively. 

Our premises team are an integral part of #TeamTrinity and ensure our learning environment is world-class.  We have a five-star Health and Safety rating and take immense pride in how our building looks and feels.  We are looking to recruit a colleague who has a desire to succeed in their role, who works hard, is a team player, and will put children at the heart of all they do.  We will move to a brand new £25million pound 18-acre site in the summer of 2024 and open the building for Years 7 – 10 in September 2024.  This will bring new ventures, new experiences and exciting challenges for the successful candidate to be part of. 

What we need? 

• Experience in a site maintenance role.  
• Practical skills, such as basic DIY, or other general maintenance skills.    

What can we offer you? 

• The opportunity to work with a progressive and forward thinking, Multi Academy Trust, where you are making the difference to the lives of hundreds of young people. 
• Opportunities for development and career progression. 
• Range of benefits including a minimum of 26 days holiday (plus bank holidays) which increase with service, reduced cost health cover and access to the West Yorkshire Pension Fund. 

You must be fully committed to optimising the opportunities that are available to children and young people, secure in the knowledge that you will be joining an ambitious forward-thinking Academy Trust that sets the standards for our family of schools and academies.
