Job description
At OFG, we work smarter so you can spend more time doing what makes you happy!
How would you like to be paid for five days but only work four?
Our colleagues’ wellbeing is at the heart of everything we do at OFG, so we’re always looking for new ways to improve everyone’s work/life balance. We’re taking part in a trial of the 4-Day Working Week, meaning that you could be working one day less a week (or equivalent).
If the trial is a success, we’ll be rolling the 4DWW out across the Group – so there’s never been a more exciting time to join #teamOFG!
Job Title: Housekeeping Assistant
Location: Acorn Park School, Banham, Norwich
Salary: £22,425.00 per annum
Hours: 37.5 hours per week, Monday to Friday 6am-1.30pm
Contract: Permanent, Fulltime 52 weeks
UK Applicants only. This role does not offer sponsorship.
About the role
As part of our continued growth, we now have a fantastic opportunity for a Housekeeping Assistant to join our close-knit team at Acorn Park School, Norwich. As Housekeeping Assistant, you will help support our pupils and young people in their daily lives, ensuring our facilities are well prepared to keep them, comfortable and healthy.
This is a great opportunity to work as part of a team committed to helping pupils with varied and complex needs.
Our Housekeepers carry out an essential role to maintain the standards of cleanliness required by the pupils and young people in our care. You will take pride in ensuring domestic duties including vacuuming, mopping, rubbish removal, dusting and cleaning are carried out to the highest standards.
When it comes to looking after our pupils, we never settle for second best. We are looking for a Housekeeper who shares our vision to build incredible futures by empowering vulnerable young people in the UK, to be happy and to make their way in the world.
Previous experience in a similar setting would be great but isn’t essential as full training will be given, and the right motivation, personal qualities and levels of resilience are just as important. These roles are ideal for people working in customer facing industries including retail, hospitality, and leisure, looking for a new role that makes a real difference to pupil’s lives and futures.
You will be quality focused, efficient, able to work at pace, and motivated to help us provide a safe, caring environment where every pupil can thrive.
