  • Willingness to work evenings and/or weekends with reasonable notice and take part in a 24 hour emergency call out rota
  • You[LB3.1] must hold a full UK driving licence with no more than six points and with no serious motoring offences in the last 10 years (i.e., CD, DD, DG, DR, IN, MR, TT). You must also have a minimum of two years driving experience. We will undertake driving licence checks on the successful candidate as part of our standard pre-employment checks process.

Successful candidates will be subject to a basic DBS check.

About the team

You’ll be part of our Direct Services Reactive Repairs team, delivering a comprehensive repairs and maintenance service to our residents, including emergency, routine and responsive works.

Our teams work closely together to provide a responsive, efficient and high quality service, ensuring our homes remain safe, secure and comfortable.
