Job Description:

Due to significant growth at Paradigm Housing Group, including the recent acquisition of a large number of properties, we are excited to announce three additional fixed-term contract opportunities for Multiskilled Void Repairs Specialists to join our expanding Voids team.

Are you a highly skilled professional with expertise in multiple trades and a passion for maintaining high-quality homes? Join us and play a key role in ensuring our properties are safe, secure, and ready for tenants.

This role covers a wide area, including Buckinghamshire, Bedfordshire, Berkshire, Cambridgeshire, Hertfordshire, Oxfordshire, and the surrounding regions. Our two office bases are in High Wycombe (Head Office) and Chesham (Stores Room/Secondary Office).

About the Role

As a Multiskilled Void Repairs Technician/Specialist, you will be responsible for day-to-day maintenance in void properties, applying technical expertise in three or more trades to deliver high-quality results. You will play a vital role in minimising void rent loss by adhering to void standards, ensuring properties are free from hazards, and completing works efficiently and effectively.

Key Responsibilities

• Perform all general maintenance works in void properties, ensuring compliance with health and safety regulations and Paradigm’s procedures.
• Achieve first-time fixes wherever possible and complete repairs within target response times.
• Communicate effectively with tenants and staff, providing excellent customer care.
• Maintain accurate documentation and reports on all completed work.
• Manage tools, materials, and vehicle stock efficiently, minimising waste.

What We’re Looking For

To succeed in this role, you’ll need:

• Relevant qualifications such as City & Guilds or NVQ in multiple trades, or equivalent experience.
• Significant experience in maintenance and repair work across multiple trades.
• Knowledge of construction, building regulations, and health & safety standards.
• A valid UK driving licence.
• Strong time-management and communication skills, with a commitment to delivering excellent customer service.

Where could this role take you?

Whilst this is not currently a permanent role, in a business our size and with the transformation we are going through, there is a possibility that this could either be extended, made permanent or other opportunities may arise. Many of our talented colleagues started at Paradigm as temporary/interim and have gone on to forge successful careers with us. However, if something longer-term doesn’t materialise, you will still gain valuable experience, which will add to your employability in this and similar fields.
