Shop Assistance jobs in United Kingdom

Are you ready to grow your career in hospitality? At Cairn Group, we believe work should be rewarding, exciting, and full of opportunities to learn and develop. Whether you're creating unforgettable guest experiences or supporting your team, you'll be part of a friendly, supportive environment where your contributions are valued. With the opportunity to learn, develop, and be recognised, Cairn Group is a place where you can build a career, you’re proud of.

As Maintenance Operative at Cairn Group, you’ll be a key part of the team that keeps our venue looking sharp, operating smoothly, and feeling safe and welcoming for every guest.

From quick fixes and preventative tasks to general decorating and small repairs, your work will help maintain the high standards our guests expect.

Whether working solo or with the wider maintenance team, you’ll take pride in being hands‑on—anticipating and resolving issues before they become problems, and keeping things running like clockwork.

This is a varied role where no two days are the same. One day might be focused on indoor maintenance and decorating, the next on small‑scale plumbing, electrics, or external grounds work.

• A Hospitality Hero – You help create a welcoming, well‑kept space where guests feel comfortable and cared for.
• A Service Superstar – You bring dedication and pride to every repair, fix, or task you carry out.
• A Team Player – You collaborate when needed but are confident working independently and managing your own workload.
• Cool Under Pressure – You stay calm when responding to requests and unexpected issues.
• A Polished Professional – You work to a high standard, maintaining safety and cleanliness across the property.
• Proactive & Organised – You prioritise tasks, plan ahead, and always look for ways to improve our spaces.
• Skilled & Capable – You’ve worked in maintenance for at least a year and have experience with tools, basic plumbing and electrics, and Microsoft Office. You’re physically fit and ready for an active, hands‑on role.
