Make a difference as a Facilities Assistant 

Our Facilities Assistants are the hands-on heroes who help keep everything running smoothly behind the scenes, making sure our centres are always safe, clean and welcoming for our guests 

They’re the go-to problem solvers - sweeping in to fix what’s broken, tidy what’s messy, and flag anything that’s not quite right. Whether it’s a leaky tap, a scuffed floor or an unexpected emergency, they’re ready to lend a hand and keep our spaces in top shape, every single day.

You’ll also need a UK Driving Licence to drive our centre vehicles. 

It’s busy, physical work, but it’s never boring! 

Are you a PGL person? 

• No experience needed, your character is what we value most. PGL people are: 
• Passionate about adventure and the great outdoors 
• Friendly people who flourish in team environments 
• Determined and resilient (peak periods are challenging) 

Above all, it’s our core values of FUN, SAFETY, QUALITY, INCLUSIVITY, TEAMWORK and RESPECT that unite us.  

No matter your background, ethnicity, age, neurodivergence or anything else … PGL is a place to be yourself, have fun, make lifelong friends and celebrate what makes you brilliantly unique. 

Happy holidays! On top of your annual leave, you’ll also get your birthday off and paid volunteering days to help worthwhile causes 

24/7 access to our Wellbeing Hub alongside our Employee Assistance Program  

Access to our financial wellbeing platform for financial support if you need it  

Training and mentoring programme, career pathways, aided development and qualifications in future seasons 

We’re proud to be part of PGL Beyond, a network of educational travel brands which empowers young people to explore, grow and thrive – through exceptional experiences that go beyond the classroom. Together, we’re making a difference.
