About The Role
About the Role
Are you an experienced property maintenance professional with a passion for making a difference? At Bedspace, we’re seeking dedicated Maintenance & Voids Operatives to uphold the high standards of the Bedspace Accommodation Standard.
You’ll Work On Properties Providing Housing For Vulnerable Service Users, Including Individuals With Complex Needs. Our Service Is Supported By Two Teams
- Maintenance Team: Responsible for attending to occupied properties.
- Voids Team: Focused on preparing vacant properties to meet required standards.
Flexibility to work across both areas will be essential to meet business needs. Your technical expertise, combined with strong interpersonal skills and a resilient, can-do attitude, will enable you to make a meaningful impact every day—whether that’s offering a kind word to someone feeling isolated or managing challenging situations with professionalism.
Your Role
Operatives are categorised into three grades based on experience and technical expertise. Your starting salary will reflect your grade.
Responsibilities Include, But Are Not Limited To
- Grade 1: Gardening, painting & decorating, property repairs, basic fire safety tasks, and boiler maintenance.
- Grade 2: Plumbing, electrics, joinery, locks, and advanced fire safety tasks.
- Grade 3: Joinery, plastering, plumbing, electrical work, PVC maintenance, and mentoring others.
This role offers an excellent opportunity to develop your skills. For less experienced candidates, we provide mentoring and support to help you progress through the grades and increase your earning potential.
Who We’re Looking For
We’re Looking For a Proactive, Professional Individual Skilled In Property Maintenance. To Join Us As a Grade 1 Operative, You’ll Need
- Experience in the relevant tasks listed above.
- A full UK driving licence (with no more than six points on your licence)
- Willingness to travel across the region.
- Strong interpersonal skills with the ability to engage with vulnerable individuals respectfully and effectively.
- A robust, solution-focused attitude, particularly when managing challenging situations.
What We Offer
- Career Progression: A structured three-grade system to support your development and career growth.
- Travel Support: A company vehicle and fuel card are provided.
- Meaningful Work: Join a team that creates safe, welcoming homes for individuals with complex needs.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
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.
