Job Description

Are you a skilled hands-on manager with a knack for leadership? We are looking for an experienced Site Manager Level 2 to take the helm of our premises team, ensuring our academy is not just operational, but a safe, secure, and thriving environment for learning.

About WPT

At Wickersley Partnership Trust (WPT), we are fueled by a single commitment: 'We never knowingly do less for other people's children than we would for our own.' As a thriving network of schools across South Yorkshire, we combine high expectations with an embedded commitment to inclusivity. We do not work in silos; instead, we rely on deep collaboration and school-to-school support to ensure every student develops socially, emotionally, and academically to achieve the highest standards.

About the Role

As a Site Manager Level 2, you step up to take greater responsibility for the strategic care of the academy site. Working closely with the Senior Manager - Premises & Compliance, you won't just fix problems as they arise; you will help plan to prevent them. You will manage the site budget, procure quotes for work, and oversee external contractors to ensure quality. Crucially, you will also lead and motivate the cleaning team, ensuring standards are met and training is delivered. This role blends practical maintenance skills with team leadership and operational management.
