Our care home, based in Leeds, will specialise in complex physical and mental health needs for 140-residents.

We’re looking for a Maintenance Officer who’s ready to take charge of ensuring our building and equipment are always in top condition, creating a safe and comfortable environment for our residents and staff.

Why This Role is Important

Your role goes beyond fixing things—it’s about enhancing the everyday lives of those around you. From making sure the lights stay bright to ensuring safety systems are always ready, you’ll be the go-to person for keeping our facility at its best.

What You’ll Do

• Tackle Repairs: Whether it’s a leaky faucet or a broken door handle, you’ll be there to fix it, ensuring everything works as it should.
• Electrical Checks: You’ll inspect control panels and wiring, nipping any potential issues in the bud before they cause problems.
• Install & Upgrade: From new appliances to essential equipment, you’ll handle installations with precision.
• Outdoor Maintenance: Keep our grounds looking pristine with tasks like lawn mowing and trash collection.
• Light Maintenance: From replacing light bulbs to general upkeep, no task is too small when it contributes to the comfort of our residents.
• Safety First: Regular checks of safety systems, like fire alarms, will be part of your routine to ensure everyone’s well-being.
• Building Care: You’ll inspect and repair any damages to building surfaces, keeping our spaces looking their best.
• Project Participation: Get involved in various projects, including exciting renovations that improve our facilities.
• Collaborative Reporting: Work closely with our facilities or maintenance manager to address any larger issues.
• Uphold Standards: Ensure that all work meets our high standards of quality, health, and safety.
• Flexibility: Occasional evening and weekend work may be required based on the home’s needs, and you’ll be on-call for any emergencies.

Our care home is part of Care Concern Group; a market leading, family-owned care group operating over 100 homes across the UK. We are passionate about creating fantastic care homes for our residents to live in and a supportive and fun environment for our team to work in.
