‘The best school I’ve ever worked at: the culture, the staff and students, the training, everything!’ (Staff member)
‘I was amazed at what a great atmosphere the school exuded, how well turned out the children were and how polite and bright they all seemed’ (Visitor)
The Bridge Academy is a truly exceptional school. Our students’ progress is excellent, and our superb personal development offer means that over the last few years we have been national debating champions, enjoyed a host of sporting successes and won both the Incorporated Society of Musician Gold Award and the Hackney Mayor’s award for music.
Why choose us?
- Excellent student behaviour and highly supportive Senior Leadership Team.
- An Achievement-oriented culture where students work hard, and it is cool to be smart.
- A warm/strict approach, meaning that our high standards do not come at the expense of inclusion.
- The belief that teaching must be a sustainable profession: clear systems and structures, sensible approach to feedback and no ‘late night culture’.
We are seeking to appoint a facilities Technician who are totally aligned to our values of Hard Work, Integrity and Kindness, and completely committed to our mission: to ensure that every student will succeed at a good university or equivalent, thrive in their chosen field and live a great life.
Do you have:
- Experience of facilities management in a modern building? (Desirable)
- Basic skills and experience in all aspects of building maintenance: joinery, general building work, electrics, plumbing and plant maintenance? (Advanced skills are desirable but not essential for this role.)
- Good customer service skills and a can-do attitude?
- High standards of workmanship and a solution focused approach?
The successful candidate will assist with the general maintenance of the Academy’s building, ensuring a clean, safe, and secure environment; and provide support and an effective and efficient service to
members of staff, students and visitors. The role is full time, Monday-Friday, 37.5 hours, per week on a shift basis. Flexibility to work paid overtime outside these hours will be required from time to time.
If you are up for the challenge, we would love to hear from you.
Our sponsors, UBS provide significant support to the Academy, and we also work with a wide variety of community groups to ensure the best for all our students. Our award-winning building is outstanding
