Job Description
Head of Grounds
Pipers Corner School
Buckinghamshire
£35,517 - £45,203 + Great Benefits
Be appreciated.
Running a school’s grounds team can often be a thankless task, you work through rain and shine, yet your hard work and dedication can go unnoticed.
But not at Pipers Corner. Here, it’s different. Grounds and outdoor spaces are a top priority.
You’ll notice this the moment you visit. Tucked away at the end of a country lane, Pipers Corner is a hidden gem. Thanks to the welcoming staff, friendly pupils, and stunning setting, everyone who steps onto the site comes away with a warm feeling. Nestled in 35 acres of grounds, including six acres of woodland, this will be your new office.
The role will keep you on your toes. Around 60% of your time will be horticulture-focused, with the rest dedicated to sports facilities and other wider support. From woodland management and keeping the Forest School thriving, to lawn care, planting, and maintaining pitches, including AstroTurf and hard courts, you’ll play a key role in shaping and developing the Grounds Management Plan.
Your first major task? Getting the school ready for Speech Day in July, when all eyes will be on the site for the end-of-year celebrations.
