• Record completed works and materials used via PDA/mobile technology
• Ensure all work is completed safely, efficiently, and to a high standard

We're keen to hear from candidates who have:

• Proven experience in Locksmithing, Door Maintenance, or UPVC Repairs
• Experience working within social housing, repairs, maintenance, or property services
• Knowledge of multi-point locking systems, door mechanisms, and window hardware
• Strong fault-finding and problem-solving abilities
