Community Caretaker - 36

Salary: £22,948 - £26,673 per annum

Location: Borehamwood

Hours: 36 per week

Contract Type: Permanent

Can you deliver customer focussed Estate Services? Do you pay attention to detail and have the ability to deliver a high standard cleaning service? If so, this could be the role for you!

We're looking for a skilled Community Caretaker to bring their expertise to the Environmental Services Team. You'll enjoy working with people and be able to use your knowledge and experience to make a real difference to our communities and our customers.

With experience of caretaking and cleaning, you’ll also be responsible for reporting repairs and removing bulky waste items from communal areas on the estate.

You’ll be required to cover sites based in Hertfordshire and Bedfordshire with the primary estate located in Borehamwood so the ability to travel is crucial.

In addition to managing work schedules and maintaining records you’ll be able to use a range of tools and carry out cleaning tasks and monitor estate activity. This is a varied and challenging role, which requires commitment, good customer care skills, the ability to communicate effectively, and a ‘can do’ mentality.

You’ll often be working alone and therefore need to be able to work on your own initiative and be self-motivated to organise your own time effectively. You’ll need to be proactive in your daily activities and aware of safe working practices. You’ll have the ability to deal with members of the public, staff and community representatives in a courteous, effective and professional manner.

In order to be successful, you’ll have strong communications skills as well as a basic level of literacy.

If this sounds like an opportunity you’d be interested in, we look forward to hearing from you.
