The Role
Erskine Stewart’s Melville Schools are currently recruiting for a Joiner to join the Estates and Facilities Department on a permanent basis. The position is available from 28 April 2025 or shortly thereafter (subject to satisfactory pre-employment checks). The role is full time, working 39 hours per week. The successful candidate will work across all school sites including Inverleith.
We are seeking a skilled and motivated Joiner to join our Estates and Facilities Department. The role involves a variety of joinery tasks, including planned and reactive maintenance, furniture repairs, fire door maintenance, and project work such as kitchen fittings and window refurbishments. The successful candidate will work closely with other trades to maintain high standards across the school estate, ensuring compliance with safety regulations at all times.
We are looking for someone with proven joinery experience, strong problem-solving abilities, and a practical, safety-conscious approach. The ideal candidate will have excellent attention to detail, good communication skills, and the ability to work both independently and as part of a team. A full, clean UK Driving Licence is essential.
ESMS is unable to sponsor the employment of international workers in this role. International applicants will therefore be unable to apply for and secure a Skilled Worker visa. The successful candidate will only be able to take up this role if they can demonstrate an alternative right to work in the UK.
Values
We are looking for individuals who can embody and promote ESMS values of Kindness, Confidence, Resilience, Integrity, and Curiosity while role modelling behaviours in line with our school pillars of Ambition, Innovation, and Community.
ESMS is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people. Applicants must undergo child protection screening, including checks with past employers and Disclosure Scotland.
All staff working at ESMS have direct access to young people; therefore, all posts within the school are considered exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974.
The closing date for applications is 12pm on 18 April 2025. We anticipate interviews will be held shortly thereafter.
