What you'll be doing
Do you take pride in fixing things, turning your hand to different tasks, and making spaces feel safe, welcoming, and well cared for? If so, we’d love you to join our team! Tools will be provided for you to get the jobs done around our sites.
As part of our dedicated and compassionate team, you’ll play a key role in keeping things running smoothly behind the scenes.

Every day will be varied, drawing on your multi-skills to:
Carry out general maintenance, repairs, and DIY tasks.
Keep our sites safe, well-presented, and welcoming.
Tackle jobs from painting, decorating, and wallpapering through to plumbing (fixing leaks, changing taps) and putting up furniture.
Spot and report any issues that need attention and take action to put things right.
Work alongside a supportive team to make sure everything meets quality and safety
What you'll bring to the role
Practical, hands-on, and confident with general DIY.
Skilled across a mix of areas such as painting, decorating, carpentry, plumbing, or general repairs.
Organised and detail-focused, with the ability to prioritise tasks.
Happy to work independently but also a great team player.
Friendly, approachable, and motivated by making a positive difference.
If you’re multi-skilled, reliable, and enjoy variety in your work, this is a fantastic opportunity to use your talents in a role where no two days are the same!
