  • Assisting in the upkeep of older properties, helping us maintain their original character
  • Conducting routine inspections and preventive maintenance
  • Keeping outdoor areas tidy with light gardening (e.g. weeding, trimming hedges)
  • Ensuring communal and exterior spaces remain safe, clean, and well‑maintained
  • Performing regular compliance checks, such as fire alarm tests
  • Liaising with external contractors and managing site access
  • Using our simple app‑based system to log tasks and flag recurring issues
  • Providing friendly, respectful customer service to tenants and clients
What We’re Looking For:
  • Previous experience in property maintenance, facilities, or a similar hands‑on role
  • Practical skills in basic joinery, painting, and basic plumbing
  • Confidence working independently and managing a varied workload
  • A proactive, can‑do attitude with attention to detail
  • Good communication and interpersonal skills
  • A full, clean UK driving licence (essential – you’ll travel between sites)
Valued extras:
  • Trade certifications (e.g. CSCS card)
  • Experience working with residential or commercial properties, especially in housing or facilities management

A driving license is essential for this role to transport between multiple sites
