What You Will Do
As Maintenance Assistant, you will carry out general maintenance tasks and basic repairs across the home, including redecoration and refurbishment works. You will maintain accurate maintenance request records, complete and update the maintenance log book and water management log book, and support the home with all property and estates related matters.
You will hold overall responsibility for health and safety within the scope of the role, including managing hot works permits, ensuring compliance certificates and records are up to date, and accompanying contractors on site when required. You will also support routine safety checks, fire systems testing, and ensure the home remains compliant with all relevant regulations.
What We’re Looking For
You will be practical, organised, and able to work independently while communicating effectively with the wider team.
