Millfield School is seeking a proactive Plumbing Maintenance Operative to join our busy Estates team.
This is a fantastic opportunity for someone with general plumbing experience and a flexible approach to join one of the UK’s leading independent schools. You’ll support the Senior Plumber with a wide range of tasks – from basic plumbing repairs and water system maintenance to swimming pool plant operations and drainage work (full training provided).
You’ll also help maintain the school’s extensive grounds and buildings – clearing gutters, supporting with external cleaning, assisting with water softeners, and carrying out legionella checks and cold water tank cleans. If you like a job where no two days are the same and enjoy problem-solving, this role could be perfect for you.
What you’ll need:
• Previous experience in maintenance or plumbing tasks (not necessarily fully qualified)
• Willingness to learn and undertake training (e.g., swimming pool and legionella)
• A positive, can-do attitude and ability to work well in a team
• A full, clean driving licence
This is a full-time, all-year-round position working Monday to Friday, 8am to 5pm. The salary for the role is £27,260 per annum. In return, you’ll receive comprehensive training, work in a supportive team environment, and play a key role in maintaining a diverse and vibrant school estate.
**Please note that applications will be considered on receipt, and as a result the vacancy may close early should an appointment be made. As such we would recommend submitting your application as soon as possible**
