- Plan and prioritise jobs based on urgency, safety and operational needs.
- Work with colleagues, contractors and other trades to complete maintenance work.
- Respond to urgent repairs and make areas safe when needed.
- Follow health and safety procedures at all times.
What You’ll Bring:
- A recognised trade qualification (City & Guilds, SVQ/NVQ or equivalent) or at least 3 years' experience in a maintenance role.
- Experience carrying out general building, facilities or multi-trade maintenance work.
- Good fault-finding and problem-solving skills.
- The ability to manage your workload and work independently.
- A full UK driving licence.
- Basic IT skills and confidence using maintenance systems.
- A good understanding of safe working practices, including risk assessments, manual handling, working at height and the safe use of tools.
What We Offer:
- Generous holiday allowance (32 days, rising with service up to 40 days)
- Paid sick leave
- Company pension (with employee contributions matched up to 12%)
- Opportunities for training, career growth and development
- Free membership across all our centres with access to fitness classes, gyms, and swimming pools
