Caretaker 100%

The Kantonsschule Uetikon am See (KUE) was newly founded in summer 2018 and is still in the development phase. It offers a lower secondary level (9th/10th school year) and five of the Zurich Matura profiles (classical languages, mathematical-natural sciences, modern languages, economic-law, as well as philosophical-pedagogical-psychological). Until the move to the new buildings on the CU site directly by the lake (expected in 2032), the KUE has a student body of around 800 students.

To strengthen our team, we are looking for a caretaker starting November 1 or by agreement.
