Your Role

At Octavia House Schools, we have a passionate team delivering high quality trauma-centred therapeutic education, supporting and building relationships with pupils who have adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and complex social, emotional and mental health (SEMH) needs, as well as other associated special educational needs and disabilities (SEND).

Octavia House schools have been leading the way in therapeutic education since 2012. Recent Independent School Inspectorate’s routine and material change inspections of our London and Essex schools were successful and highlighted a rare significant strength. This is in addition to our previous outstanding Ofsted reports which demonstrate the strength of our provision across all sites and the success of our specialist therapeutic approach

We have a unique & exciting opportunity for a School Caretaker to make a genuine difference in our pupils’ lives across our new trauma-centred therapeutic secondary school (KS3-KS4) in Clapham, London.

We are seeking an experienced caretaker to join our team on a full-time basis, from the Summer 2026 term.

Although we are a specialist setting, we proactively welcome applications from experienced mainstream colleagues, from varying disciplines, who would like to extend their skill base.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:

·      Provide support across all London sites

·      Ensure our schools are not just compliant with independent school standards and health and safety legislation, but that they are consistently clean, attractive, welcoming environments that are uncluttered and conducive to therapeutic learning

·      Provide day-to-day site management of the school sites in the London cluster

·      Respond in priority order to tasks logged online, to quickly repair and/or replace and/or make safe, broken/damaged infrastructure

·      To work with contracted teams, including cleaning, maintenance, secruity, fire, catering, technology, and any other relevant activity relating to the cluster’s premises

BENEFITS OF WORKING AT OHS:

·      New, highly-competitive pay scales

·      An opportunity to be part of a unique, seamless therapeutic team model.

·      Vitality’s private healthcare package which includes health, medical and dental insurance, lifestyle benefits, heavily-discounted gym membership and various rewards.

·      Opportunities for high-quality professional development and career progression, and financial support of up to 100% towards relevant professional qualifications.

Early applications are encouraged. We welcome candidates who are available to start on the 1st September 2026.

You may be required to attend an onboarding programme which includes training and welcome days prior to the start of the academic term in September 2026. To facilitate this, if you are successfully recruited into one of our roles you may be required to be available to start from July 2026. This will be discussed in more detail during the recruitment process.
