We are seeking a dedicated and reliable School Caretaker to ensure the cleanliness, safety, and overall maintenance of our educational facilities. The successful candidate will be responsible for a variety of tasks, including daily cleaning, grounds maintenance, and minor repairs. This role is critical in providing a welcoming environment for students, staff, and visitors.
