About Us
Loreburn is a registered social landlord (RSL) and Scottish Charity, with 2,700 homes across Dumfries & Galloway. Established more than 40 years ago, our vision and mission is to ‘create great places to live’ by providing good quality, well maintained, and affordable homes.
As a community-based association, we place our tenant facing services at the heart of the communities we serve. Our ‘Hub, Home & Roam’ working model allows our team to work flexibly, ensuring they can be where they’re most needed, supported by the right tools and resources to deliver on our commitments to tenants and communities.
The Role
Working remotely, you’ll be at the forefront of our In-House Repairs Team with a key role to play in delivering a friendly, helpful and professional service to our customers and colleagues.
Your role will involve scheduling works and ensuring that our homes are safely and cost-effectively maintained and repaired.
You’ll be a first point of contact for customers wishing to book repairs and maintenance services; enquire about the progress of any outstanding jobs, or those wanting guidance with any repairs/maintenance related matters.
While the role is home based, there will be regular travel to Dumfries and occasionally other locations in the region.

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.
