School Caretaker for Bondsjöhöjdens School & Murbergsskolan

Do you want a varied job where you play a key role in the daily school operations?

Bondsöhöjdens School/Murbergsskolan is now looking for an engaged and solution-oriented caretaker who, together with the rest of the staff, works to create a school where both students and adults thrive, develop, feel included, and have the opportunity to succeed.

Here, you become part of a strong "WE," where all professions work together for the students' best interests. As a school caretaker, you are an important adult in the school environment – a person whom students meet daily and who contributes to safety, study environment, and well-being.

Responsibilities

This is a role for you who likes to deliver noticeable service. As a school caretaker at Bondsjöhöjdens School/Murbergsskolan, you are the hub of the daily flow and ensure that premises, outdoor areas, and logistics run smoothly without interruption.

You stay ahead, solve problems quickly, and create structure in a daily life where much happens simultaneously.

You work daily with classic caretaker tasks such as supervision, maintenance, and repairs, while also providing good service both internally and externally based on arising situations.

The duties as a school caretaker include:

  • Responsibility for ongoing maintenance and simpler repairs, e.g., carpentry and painting of school premises and furnishings
  • Rectify faults and deficiencies and handle fault reports
  • Be the contact person for the property owner, alarm companies, and other external partners
  • Work with systematic work environment work (SAM) and fire protection work (SBA), including risk assessments, controls, and safety rounds
  • Responsibility for rearrangements, moves, and preparing premises
  • Manage waste handling and recycling
  • Responsibility for goods receipt and mail handling
  • Handle locks, keys, and alarms, as well as opening and closing the school premises
  • Perform snow clearing and sanding, and contribute to the maintenance of outdoor areas and the schoolyard. Lifting of heavy objects may occur.
  • Responsibility for furniture, interior design, and purchasing of consumables
  • Work with deep cleaning of premises
  • Ensure functioning learning environments both indoors and outdoors
  • In case of substitute staff shortage, substitute positions at the after-school center or in connection with class activities outside the school area, e.g., theater visits or swimming lessons, may become relevant.

You have many contact areas in your work – with students, staff, school management, craftsmen, and visitors – and contribute to creating structure in a daily life where much happens simultaneously.

Your Competence and Experience

We are looking for you who have knowledge and experience of caretaker tasks, property maintenance, or similar work.

Qualifications:

  • Vocational upper secondary education or equivalent experience
  • Good practical skills in maintenance, repair, assembly, and service
  • Digital skills and good IT proficiency
  • Good knowledge of Swedish in speech and writing
  • Category B driver's license

Merits:

  • Experience working with systematic work environment and fire protection
  • Experience working with children in some activity, e.g., as a teacher or coach

Personal Qualities

We are looking for you who like to make things work and take pride in solving things before they become problems. In this role, you are independent and can safely make your own decisions based on what is best for the operations. You are practical, technically curious, and thrive in a role where you need to be both flexible and structured. You are good at prioritizing, even when conditions change quickly. You are also an important adult in the school environment – a person whom students and colleagues meet every day. Therefore, your attitude, your sense of security, and your ability to collaborate are crucial.

You believe that everyone can succeed, and with patience and calmness, you are ready to create the conditions that are required, preferably by allowing students to try working practically together with you through the caretaker tasks.

The work can sometimes be physically demanding and also involves working alone, which requires good physical fitness and independence.
