You will be reporting to the Registered Manager.

Your working pattern is Monday to Friday.

We are happy to talk flexible working, where possible.

The purpose of the role is to support the smooth running of the Sunnybrae Centre by maintaining a clean, safe and well-presented environment across the core building, tenants’ homes and outdoor areas.

Sunnybrae Centre is looking for a motivated, practical and creative individual to help us maintain our core building, support tenants in their homes, and develop our outdoor spaces. From small repairs and general maintenance to helping keep our grounds tidy and supporting our growing vegetable garden, this is a hands-on role where your work will make a real difference to people’s day-to-day lives.

We are looking for someone who is reliable, self-motivated and enjoys working both independently and as part of a team. An interest in gardening and being outdoors is a real advantage, as is a proactive approach to spotting jobs that need done and taking pride in seeing them through.

If you enjoy practical work, like the idea of being part of a warm and supportive environment, and want a role where you can use your skills to help create a comfortable and well-maintained place for people to live, then we would love to meet you!
