Maintenance Assistant (Temporary Support)
Salary: £12.50 per hour
Hours: Fixed Term contract - Temporary support
What we need in a nutshell
We need someone who will keep our accommodation, and Gara Rock, in tip-top condition and looking spectacular, repairing, maintaining, renewing, and improving everything from the entrance signage to the back fence.
Who are we?
Gara Rock is a stunning cliff-top boutique hotel in South Devon with panoramic sea views. With a wellbeing spa, a 10-seater cinema and a restaurant overlooking the sea, it’s a truly special place.
As part of our team of holiday heroes, you will help the Maintenance Manager to ensure everything is in good working order. Your work will include:
* Carpentry, e.g. repair of doors, windows, kitchen units, walls and floors, signage, roofs & gutters and just about anything else wooden that you can think of.
* Landscaping, including paving and fencing
* External Plumbing
* Painting, decorating, and tiling
* Maintenance jobs; everything from replacing light bulbs to troubleshooting faulty locks and cutting keys
* Carrying out maintenance checks and repairs on changeover days, working with other tradespeople when necessary
* Pretty much anything else that other people can’t do!
Guests and staff will look to you to fix what’s broken and restore order, so you will need to be confident, friendly and obliging in addition to your practical skills.
One more thing…holidays happen at holiday times, so you’ll need to work your magic on bank holidays, evenings and weekends too.
Skills, experience, and qualities you’ll need
We will train you, but you’ll need to have the following skills and experience to apply for this role:
* Ability to carry out domestic repairs and maintenance, e.g. tiling, painting, lock repairs etc
* An understanding of Health & Safety at work
Add in the ability to think for yourself and be proactive, great people skills, unfailing enthusiasm and extremely high standards of craftsmanship - if you’ve got all that, you’re in the running.
Nice to have but not essential
It would be great if you tick some of these boxes too (but we won’t hold it against you if you don’t).
* Experience of working in a holiday park
What we can offer you
This is a flexible role that we can help you fit into your life and it can also lead to other roles and career progression if you want it to. We look after you with a great range of benefits, including:
* Discounts on Away Resorts Holidays
* On Park Discounts
* Awards and Recognition
* Training & Development
* Team Events
* Employee Assistance Program
