• A City & Guilds Level 3 NVQ (or equivalent experience); a time-served apprenticeship is a bonus.
• Essential quals: CSCS card, a valid driving license, and health and safety training (e.g., asbestos awareness, working at height, manual handling).
• Solid knowledge of health and safety laws and how to apply them.
• Comfort with tech—think PDAs and IT systems for planning and updates.
• Great communication skills, a team-player spirit, and a polite, professional vibe.

• This isn’t just a job—it’s a chance to make a real difference for our over-55s residents. You’ll:
• Work in a forward-thinking team that values innovation and collaboration.
• Play a key role in keeping our properties safe and comfortable.
