Millfield Community Officer

Millfield School relies heavily on the invaluable contributions of its dedicated Community Officers, who hold an essential and esteemed role within the institution. Combining a diverse range of engaging responsibilities, the role of a Community Officer at Millfield can be likened to that of a security guard, police community support officer, postie, and events operations personnel all rolled into one. As a Community Officer, you have the opportunity to participate in various tasks from each of these domains, making you the ultimate friendly face on our beautiful campuses in both Street and Glastonbury. At the core of this role is the responsibility of ensuring the safety and security of our students and staff while maintaining the smooth functioning of the school.
