Maintenance Operative

About The Role

Full Time Position

HC-One are looking for a Maintenance Operative with solid experience in maintenance, building, DIY, cleaning and housekeeping. You’ll also need technical knowledge of mechanical and electrical systems, as well as ideally some IT skills. And, whenever you communicate with a resident or co‑worker, you’ll be truly considerate and kind.

As a Maintenance Operative, you will be responsible for ensuring our residents live in a place that’s proactively inspected and brilliantly maintained at all times. You’ll carry out audits and keep records up to date. Whether you’re replacing a tap or mixer valve, fitting a new extractor fan, repairing the timber on a bedroom window or putting up new wallpaper in the dining room, you’ll do so with a sense of kindness above everything else.

Safeguarding is everyone’s responsibility. You must be able to recognise signs that may indicate possible abuse, harm or neglect in its different forms and know what to do if there are any concerns. All colleagues are required to attend safeguarding training appropriate to their role and undertake additional training in associated areas. You should also seek appropriate advice, report concerns and, if action is not taken, escalates them.

We’ll provide full training, so it’s a great opportunity to learn something new.
