*** This is a fixed term contract for 12 months **
If you are passionate about caring for the elderly and want to build a long-term career in one of our award-winning homes, then look no further than Akari Care. Our aim is to create an environment where our residents are valued, respected, and are offered the personalised care they deserve.
We now seek a Regional Maintenance Operative who is passionate about, and thrives on, making a real and positive difference to the lives of older people.
Whilst this position is a very hands-on, practical role, it is hugely important to us that you be mindful of and conscientious to individual needs and backgrounds. As part of our regional team, you will play a vital role in engaging with, supporting, and improving the quality of lives for our residents. You will carry out your tasks in a way that also promotes an approachable and respectful relationship with our residents to enable them to live a fulfilled and comfortable life with a sense of security, dignity, and self-respect.
Working in collaboration and unison with our Estates Mangers and the wider maintenance team you will be responsible for ensuring that high standards are continually met with regards to maintenance in and around the home environments. This will include but is not limited to: building repairs; basic plumbing, joinery, space management and contractor liaison. Electrical experience would be advantageous, however training can be provided.
The role is based across our North East region, which stretches from Stockton to Northumberland so travel will be required daily.
Each day will present you with challenges which must be unreservedly embraced whilst being respectful and supportive of individual and differing needs of both residents and colleagues. Ensuring that our homes are well maintained, you will be comfortable imparting your knowledge to our Home based Maintenance Operatives to ensure that they adhere to the same high standards.
By showing us you can match our values with the right desire for personalised excellence, community spirit and a kind, caring and compassionate nature, we, in return, can offer you a career developing your knowledge, skills and abilities to support vulnerable adults with the care their individual needs require.
