Overview:
We now have an excellent opportunity for a skilled Maintenance Plumber / Maintenance Operative to join our highly regarded NHS repairs and maintenance team based in Sidcup.
Our maintenance business provides a range of expert planned and responsive maintenance services to domestic properties and commercial buildings in the social housing, health and social care sectors. We look after a growing number of healthcare buildings for NHS Trusts, residential homes, and educational facilities. Using the latest technology we ensure properties are well maintained, efficient, and fit for purpose.
Job Purpose:
Our NHS maintenance healthcare team in Sidcup provides a planned, preventative, and reactive maintenance service for a large acute NHS trust. To enable us to continue to deliver an excellent quality of service, we are looking for a multi-skilled plumber / maintenance plumber to join the team.
This varied role will involve providing repairs (responsive and planned) with a particular emphasis on plumbing but will also involve other general maintenance works. You will be working in a mobile role maintaining a number of healthcare sites in a small patch in North Kent.
What we can offer you:
* Competitive starting salary
* A company van, fuel card, and uniform.
* A full-time permanent position. Normal working hours are 8 am to 5:00 pm Monday to Friday. You will also participate in an on-call rota for emergency repairs where you will receive a standby allowance and overtime paid at time and a half or double time depending on day/time of call out.
* 25 days holiday with the ability to increase up to 30 days.
* Access to an employee discount scheme which includes a wide range of special offers and discounts on insurances, lifestyle goods, and services.
* Company pension, life assurance, and income protection.
* Flexible benefits for you to choose from including Critical Illness, DenPlan, and more.
* Health and wellness benefits such as free flu vaccinations, access to an Employee Assistance and Wellbeing Programme, BUPA Health & Wellbeing Plans, and access to our Health and Wellbeing portal with an extensive range of advice and resources.
* Opportunities to progress your career across the business.
* Full training, ongoing coaching, and support.
Experience Required:
Previous relevant experience in the maintenance of buildings is essential, ideally within the NHS (or for a maintenance contractor providing services to the NHS). Alternatively, you will have worked for a maintenance contractor providing a planned/reactive maintenance service in a commercial setting (perhaps a hotel, school, supermarkets, etc).
You will have the ability to undertake a wide range of plumbing repairs but also some other general building skills. This could include carpentry, plastering, etc. Above all, you will have excellent customer service skills and be passionate about providing high-quality repairs. This is a genuinely diverse role with excellent scope for personal development.
A full UK driving license is required and the position is subject to a DBS check.
Above all, you will have a keen customer service approach and strong interpersonal skills. If you have this experience, we'd strongly encourage you to apply.
