Why join us?

We’re proud of our happy home and are dedicated to creating a place where everyone enjoys coming to work each day.

As well being part of a lively and supportive team, we are surrounded by fascinating residents who also bring so much to our lives every day too.

About The Role

As our Maintenance person you will be responsible for all repairs and maintenance across our home. You’ll walk the home daily to pro-actively identify any areas that need attention, whilst also conducting regular safety checks on various equipment. You’ll create a maintenance programme for the home alongside our Home Manager and of course you’ll interact with our residents on a daily basis - so you’ll be friendly, caring and kind whilst respecting our residents’ dignity at all times.

Here’s some other important things you need to know:

• You will need to be experienced at painting and decorating. Having electrical and plumbing skills would be beneficial but not essential
• You will need to demonstrate that you have excellent knowledge of Health and Safety, COSHH, Fire Safety and Food Safety
• You will keep up to date and accurate records of all checks and repairs completed and scheduled
