As a Head of Maintenance, you’ll ensure we provide a clean, safe, and well-maintained environment so residents feel truly at home and staff can deliver exceptional care. Creating a warm, welcoming atmosphere is a core part of our commitment to first-class support.

Hands-on experience in property maintenance with at least one core trade skill and a wide-ranging maintenance capability.
Reliability, flexibility with working hours, and a full UK driving licence.
IT literacy and GCSEs in Maths and English (or equivalent).

Free training and development for all roles
Access to dedicated wellbeing and support tools
A range of exclusive retail discounts and savings
Unlimited referrals with our ‘Refer a Friend’ bonus scheme
