Closing Date: Applications reviewed on receipt
Millfield Prep School is seeking a kind, reliable and caring individual to join our boarding team as an Evening Helper. This rewarding role plays an important part in supporting our pupils at the end of their day, helping to create a calm, safe and welcoming house environment where children feel well looked after.
This is a term-time only position, with various shifts available across weekdays and weekends. Shifts are from 5.30pm to 9.30pm. The role is ideally suited to someone who enjoys working with children, takes pride in practical tasks and values being part of a supportive and friendly school community.
As an Evening Helper, you will work closely with Houseparents and other house staff to support the smooth running of the boarding house. Your role will be both practical and pastoral, with a strong focus on the wellbeing and comfort of our pupils. You will assist with evening and bedtime routines, help pupils settle at the end of the day and provide reassurance to any children who may need a little extra support.
You will also help with the organisation and care of pupils' belongings, including laundry, changing beds, repacking kitbags and ensuring clothing and equipment are tidy and ready for use. Preparing and clearing away snacks, maintaining tidy communal areas and helping to create a relaxed and orderly atmosphere are also key parts of the role.
In return, Millfield offers an hourly rate of £13.03, plus statutory holiday pay, and the opportunity to work in a welcoming and supportive school community where you can make a positive difference to the daily lives of our pupils.
