Salary: £30,000–£35,000 per year depending on experience
Company Vehicle + Fuel Card
22 Days Holiday + Bank Holidays
JH Contracts Ltd is looking for an experienced and reliable Multi-Skilled Tradesperson to join our growing team.
We are a Tamworth-based property maintenance and refurbishment contractor working across a range of sectors throughout the Midlands and beyond.
A significant part of our current workload is within social housing repairs, maintenance and remedial works, so experience within this sector would be particularly beneficial. However, our work is varied and also includes new-build housing aftercare, defect and remedial works, refurbishment projects and commercial fit-outs.
Although we are based in Tamworth, this is a mobile role and travel to different sites and customer properties will be required.
The Role
You will carry out a wide range of repairs, maintenance and finishing works across occupied and void social housing properties, new-build developments and commercial projects.
Typical works may include:
- Carpentry and general joinery
- Kitchen and bathroom repairs
- Plumbing repairs and replacements
- Patch plastering and making good
- Wall and floor tiling
- Painting and decorating
- Door, frame, skirting and architrave repairs
- Flooring repairs
- Silicone and mastic works
- Minor brickwork and external repairs
- General property maintenance
- New-build defect and snagging works
- Remedial works following inspections
- Refurbishment and commercial fit-out works
- Diagnosing defects and completing suitable repairs
- Making good following other trades
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
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
We are not necessarily looking for somebody who is a specialist in every trade, but you must be genuinely multi-skilled, experienced and capable of completing a variety of works to a good professional standard.
Social Housing Experience
Previous experience working within social housing, housing associations, local authority properties or occupied residential properties would be a significant advantage.
You will regularly be working in customers' homes, including properties occupied by elderly or vulnerable residents. We therefore expect our operatives to be polite, respectful, presentable and professional at all times.
The ability to communicate properly with residents, site teams, our office staff and our clients is an important part of the role.
Experience working on new-build housing developments, particularly customer care, snagging and defect rectification, would also be advantageous.
What We Are Looking For
Above everything else, reliability and quality of workmanship are paramount to us.
We are looking for somebody who:
- Turns up when they are supposed to
- Takes pride in their work
- Completes jobs properly and to a high standard
- Can work independently and use their own initiative
- Is genuinely capable across a number of trades
- Is comfortable working in occupied homes, new-build properties and commercial environments
- Treats customers and their homes with respect
- Keeps work areas clean and tidy
- Can accurately report additional works or problems found on site
- Is comfortable providing photographs and job updates
- Works safely and follows company and client procedures
- Can adapt to different types of work and environments
- Is flexible regarding travelling to different areas when required

What We Offer
- £30,000–£35,000 salary depending on experience and ability
- Company vehicle
- Company fuel card
- 22 days annual leave plus bank holidays
- Full-time permanent position
- Varied workload across social housing, new-build and commercial projects
