Lambrook seeks an enthusiastic, motivated Grounds Person to assist the team of grounds staff to manage the day-to-day sports provision and the general estate work covering 52 acres.
Working within the team to produce and maintain the sports pitches to match quality, an understanding of the setting out and preparation necessary principally for Cricket, Football, Rugby and Golf would be useful but not a requirement. Assistance with the daily maintenance of the Astroturf is also required.
There is a demanding requirement to cut grass and the maintenance of these areas through the summer months ranging from the golf greens and cricket squares with hand mowers; to ride-on machinery for the croquet lawn and play areas; to the tractor mounted powered mowers for the outfields; and so a good knowledge of machinery operation would be useful, although full training will be provided.
In the winter months estate work is essential to maintain the school grounds and ditching, hedging, lopping, strimming and general estate work is carried out by the team of grounds staff. Tractor driving skills would be useful and the ability to be a team player is essential.
Closing date: Sunday, 9 March 2025 .
Lambrook School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. Please be aware that an Enhanced DBS check is required for all new staff.
