BUILD A CAREER INSTALLING AND MAINTAINING PLAYGROUNDS ACROSS THE UK
Are you practical, reliable and looking to build a long‑term career with a company that invests in its people?
We are recruiting on behalf of one of the UK's leading specialists in the design, installation and maintenance of playgrounds and outdoor play environments.
This is an excellent opportunity for someone with a hands‑on background to join a growing team and receive full training from experienced technicians. No previous experience is required; attitude, reliability and willingness to learn are far more important.

- Willing to stay away from home overnight when required
- Able to work outdoors in all weather conditions
You’ll work alongside experienced team members carrying out inspections, maintenance, and repair work on playground equipment and safety surfacing across the UK.
No two days are the same. One day you could be carrying out inspections at a local school, the next you could be travelling to a large installation project elsewhere in the country.
Responsibilities- Inspect and identify maintenance requirements for playground equipment
- Carry out repairs to timber, metal and play equipment
- Assist with installations, surfacing works and general groundworks
- Use hand and power tools safely and effectively

- Full UK Driving Licence (essential)
- Positive attitude and strong work ethic
- Practical or hands‑on background
- Good communication skills
- Professional and presentable manner
- Comfortable working outdoors
- Happy travelling throughout the UK when required
- Looking for a long‑term career rather than just a job
- £27,000 starting salary
- Full training and development programme
- Opportunity to learn specialist inspection and maintenance skills
- Company vehicle provided for work duties
- Nationwide travel with varied working locations
- Occasional overnight stays as part of project requirements
- Long‑term career progression opportunities
- Supportive and close‑knit team environment
We welcome applications from candidates with a wide range of practical backgrounds. Whether you've worked in construction, landscaping, manufacturing, warehousing, leisure, sport, maintenance or another hands‑on environment, we'd like to hear from you. The most important qualities we're looking for are reliability, a positive attitude, good communication skills and a genuine desire to learn and build a long‑term career within a growing business.
If you enjoy practical work, take pride in doing a job properly and want to build a career with a respected company, we'd love to hear from you.
