This is a varied position suited to someone with a practical mindset, good attention to detail, and a flexible approach to supporting different areas of building maintenance as required.
About you
Qualifications: No formal qualifications are required; however, previous relevant experience in a maintenance or facilities role is essential. A relevant trade background and/or health & safety certifications (e.g. CSCS card, manual handling training) are advantageous.
Experience: Previous experience in a general maintenance, caretaking, or similar practical role is essential. Experience working in a customer-facing or busy operational environment is beneficial.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits

Values: Proactive, self-motivated, and flexible, with a can-do attitude and willingness to support a wide range of tasks. Committed to maintaining a safe, clean, and well-functioning environment and delivering a high standard of service.
