Maintenance Assistant

at  Elysium Healthcare

Are you a skilled tradesperson or ‘handy man’ with knowledge of Health & Safety standards and experience of managing contractors? As a Maintenance Assistant, you’ll balance completing repairs with getting external support to ensure all facilities and environments are fully functioning, safe, comfortable and follows quality standards.
You’ll be working at a brand-new 42 bed mental health service, (formally Oaktree Manor), which is due to open early 2024. The smell of fresh paint, everything shiny and new, with a likely list of snags, and as the service begins welcoming patients there are likely to be evolving needs and requirements, so expect to be kept busy!
This social and important role will see you engaging with patients, staff and contractors daily, whilst working alongside the Estates and Facilities Manager to complete necessary tasks and keep Dunnock View in top condition.
You will be responsible for ensuring the service’s facilities are fit for purpose and will regularly conduct audits to identify and repair any faults.

• Working alongside the Dunnock View team, you will turn your hand to all maintenance-related tasks, liaising with contractors to support the upkeep of the service.
• Maintain a well decorated, safe and comfortable environment throughout the site, in line with quality standards, and follows work processes which comply with statutory regulations.
• Undertake regular internal and external Health & Safety audits of the site and its grounds.
• Participate in all aspects of preventative and corrective maintenance on buildings structure and fittings.
