We are looking for a skilled and motivated Carpenter to join our Estates Team.
You will undertake a wide range of general carpentry and building fabric maintenance duties alongside the inspection, maintenance, and repair of fire doors to ensure compliance with fire safety regulations and NHS standards. Working across the Trust's estate, you will carry out planned preventative maintenance, reactive repairs, and fire safety improvement works, contributing to a safe, compliant, and well-maintained healthcare environment for patients, staff, and visitors. Experience in carpentry, building maintenance, and fire door compliance is desirable, together with a commitment to delivering high-quality customer-focused services.
We are committed to recruiting the best person for the job through a fair, open and consistent process that is free from bias and discrimination.
We are working towards becoming an anti-racist organisation. This means creating a workplace where every colleague feels seen, heard and valued, and where racism in any form has no place. Our anti-racism commitment is backed by action through our Anti-Racism Statement and action plan, developed in collaboration with our REACH staff network.
We actively challenge discrimination, dismantle barriers and embed equity across all aspects of our workforce, including recruitment, progression and development. All applicants will receive equal consideration regardless of race, ethnicity, nationality, religion or belief, sexual orientation, gender identity, age, disability, health condition or employment history.
We particularly welcome applications from ethnically diverse communities, people with disabilities or long-term health conditions, and LGBTQ+ community members. We are proud to be a Disability Confident Employer, a member of the Business Disability Forum, and a Stonewall Diversity Champion.
Our staff networks, including REACH, PRIDE, ENABLED and Women’s Networks, are active and executive supported. These employee-led networks play a vital role in shaping an inclusive culture at GOSH and are open to all colleagues.
Together, we are building a culture where inclusion is not optional - it is essential.
