We are recruiting a Cleaner/Driver to support hangar operations for a major aerospace organisation based at Oxford Airport. This role involves general cleaning duties within hangar and engineering environments, along with UK-wide driving to collect and deliver equipment and stock. You will be working in a safety-critical setting where attention to detail is important and maintaining a clean, debris-free hangar is essential to reduce Foreign Object Debris (FOD) risks. Applicants must be comfortable working in a secure aviation environment.

Core duties include keeping hangar floors clear of debris, emptying non-toxic waste bins, cleaning washrooms and changing rooms, sweeping external apron areas, driving company vehicles for UK collections and deliveries, and loading or unloading equipment at customer and supplier sites.

Essential requirements:

• Clean and current driving licence; Class 2 preferred. This is mandatory.
• Must be eligible to obtain both DBS clearance and Security Clearance (SC). These are required to work around controlled hangar areas and sensitive equipment.
• Ability to follow directions and use in-vehicle sat-nav.
• Awareness of safety and security in busy engineering environments.
• Clear communication skills and the ability to work with supervisors and engineering teams.
• Manual handling training (certificate of attendance accepted).

Please note that you should not apply if you do not have a clean driving licence, cannot pass DBS checks, or are not eligible for SC clearance. These requirements cannot be bypassed and are essential for site access.

The role is suitable for someone who is reliable, safety-conscious, able to work independently, and comfortable with a mix of cleaning duties and driving responsibilities. Training will be provided for the use of automated cleaning equipment.

To apply, please send your CV. Suitable applicants will be contacted promptly.
