Multi-Skilled Handy Person

Are you a practical, hands‑on person who likes fixing things, helping people, and finishing a job knowing you’ve made a real difference? We’re working with a fantastic Care & Repair business that is looking for a Multi‑Skilled Handy Person to join their team. This is a varied role where around 70% of your work will focus on cold water plumbing, with the remaining 30% covering general handyman and property maintenance tasks.

You’ll be working in customers’ homes, helping to keep properties safe, functional and well maintained — so alongside your practical skills, you’ll need to be someone who takes pride in their work and treats people with care and respect.

Your day‑to‑day work will include:

• Carrying out cold water plumbing repairs and installations
• Repairing and replacing taps, valves, pipes, toilets, cisterns and other water fittings
• Identifying and resolving leaks and minor plumbing issues
• Carrying out general property repairs and maintenance
• Basic carpentry, joinery, tiling, patching and making good
• Putting up grab rails, handrails and other household adaptations where required
• Carrying out minor repairs to doors, fixtures, fittings and furniture
• Responding to jobs efficiently and completing work to a high standard
• Keeping customers informed and providing a friendly, professional service
• Completing job sheets and relevant paperwork accurately
• Working safely and following all company procedures

We’re looking for someone who is practical, reliable and genuinely enjoys helping people.

• Previous experience in plumbing, property maintenance or a multi‑skilled maintenance role
• Good practical knowledge of cold water plumbing systems
• A broad range of basic handyman/maintenance skills
• The ability to diagnose problems and find practical solutions
• A good eye for detail and pride in your workmanship
• Excellent customer service skills
• The ability to work independently and manage your own workload
• A full UK driving licence
• A DBS is required for the role (carried out once an offer has been made if not on the Update Service)
• A professional, friendly and approachable manner

Experience of working in social housing, care & Repair, adaptations or customers’ homes would be ideal, but isn’t essential.

This is a great opportunity to join a business where your work genuinely makes a difference. You’ll be helping people to live safely and comfortably in their own homes, while working as part of a supportive and experienced team.

• A permanent position with a well‑established organisation
• A varied workload — no two days are quite the same
• The opportunity to use and develop your practical skills
• A friendly and supportive working environment

If you’re a multi‑skilled maintenance professional with solid cold water plumbing experience and you’re looking for a role where your practical skills can make a genuine difference, we’d love to hear from you.
