Roofers, we are now hiring! Build your career with us…
Are you an experienced Roofer who takes pride in doing the job properly the first time?
At whg, we’re looking for a skilled Roofer to join our Home Maintenance Services team, helping us maintain and improve thousands of homes across our communities. Every day is different from repairing storm damage and renewing roofs to completing planned maintenance that makes a real difference to our customers’ homes.
If you’re looking for a role where you can work independently, enjoy a competitive salary, excellent benefits and regular, guaranteed work without the long hours, we’d love to hear from you.
This vacancy is eligible for our Colleague Refer a Friend Scheme. Full details are available on Whoogle.
What you’ll be doing
As one of our Roofers, you’ll carry out a wide range of roofing repairs, maintenance and renewals across our domestic, void and occasional commercial properties.

Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.

- Working safely, efficiently and to a high standard every time
You’ll manage your own daily workload using handheld technology, travel between jobs in a whg vehicle, maintain your tools and van stock, and ensure every property is left clean, safe and tidy.
Most importantly, you’ll provide a great experience for our customers by communicating professionally and treating every home with respect.
