This is an exciting opportunity for a Multi Skilled Joiner to join Your Housing Group's Repairs and Maintenance Division and provide a high-quality Joinery and Plumbing and associated repair and replacement service throughout Preston and the surrounding areas.
Working for a Housing Association can be extremely rewarding, and we are lucky to have a hugely collaborative team of skilled operatives, throughout all Trade professions, who work together to ensure that our customers are safe and warm in their homes.
If you would like to play a part in this talented and committed team, then it’s a great time to come and get involved as the team is growing and evolving.
What will my working week look like?
Ideally, you will live within or close to your regional area of work (Preston) and be based within a reasonable travelling distance of our Head Office in Birchwood, Warrington to attend meetings and training courses when needed.

One of the great things about this role is the variety! No two days are the same and if you are someone that strives for customer excellence, this can be an extremely rewarding role.
And what would make me stand out from the crowd?
NVQ Level 3 or equivalent recognised competency/qualification within the Joinery and Plumbing field
Experience of undertaking additional repairs and maintenance outside of a Joinery skill set preferably within Plumbing
