This is an exciting opportunity for a Multi Skilled Plasterer to join Your Housing Group’s Repairs and Maintenance Division in the Empty Homes team and provide a high‑quality plastering repairs service to our customers. Working for a housing association can be extremely rewarding, and we are lucky to have a hugely collaborative team of operatives across all trade professions who work together to ensure that our customers are safe and warm in their homes.

You will live within your regional area of work and will ideally also be within a reasonable travelling distance of our Head Office in Birchwood, Warrington to attend meetings and training courses when needed.

• Provide a quality repairs service to our customers, travelling to designated properties and undertaking all aspects of plastering repair work.
• Carry out plastering work on maintenance, major and minor construction works for both empty homes and tenanted properties owned by Your Housing Group.
• Ensure all work undertaken is completed with due regard for quality, productivity, and safety.

• Full UK Driving License (ideally no more than 6 points).
• Experience in patching, skimming, boarding, 2‑coat plaster work, internal and external rendering, coving, cornice and insulation.
• May be required from time to time to undertake minor joinery works, repointing and brickwork associated with plastering work.
• NVQ Level 3 Trade Qualification or equivalent recognised competency.
• Basic health and safety knowledge in a repair’s environment.
• Collaborative team player.
• Keen problem solver.
• Passionate about right‑first‑time and delivering a quality service.

This role also offers genuine progression opportunities. Many of our operatives go on to gain further qualifications or take up team leader, supervisory or secondment roles internally when they arise.

We offer £36,089 for a 40‑hour week, and 23 days annual leave, plus 3 discretionary days between Christmas & New Year, plus Bank Holidays. Additional benefits include a contributory pension where we match whatever you choose to contribute (up to 8%), an advanced level Healthcare cash plan through Medicash (providing dental and optician cashback, 24/7 GP access, money back from prescriptions and alternative therapy treatments) and an amazing discount scheme giving you access to half‑price cinema tickets and a huge range of discounts with some of the biggest high street and online names.

Your Housing Group values diversity and encourages applications from all communities. The Group operates a Guaranteed Interview Scheme for any applicants who declare they have a disability; if these applicants meet the minimum requirements for the role they will be guaranteed an interview.
