Company: SKILLED CAREERS

Job Type: Permanent, Full Time

Salary: £21.40/hour plus company van & fuel card

We're looking for a skilled, reliable Carpenter/Joiner to join our team working across social housing properties. This is a role for someone who takes real pride in their work and understands the difference a well-done repair can make to someone's home.

About the role

You'll be carrying out day-to-day repairs, planned maintenance, and occasional larger refurbishment works within occupied and void social housing properties. From hanging doors and fitting kitchens to repairing flooring, fencing, and general woodwork, no two days are quite the same.

You'll be working in people's homes, so professionalism, respect, and clear communication are just as important as your tools.

What you'll be doing:

Responsive carpentry repairs and maintenance

Installing doors, frames, skirting, kitchens, and other fittings

Completing jobs right first time where possible

Keeping work areas tidy and safe

Communicating clearly with tenants and colleagues

Accurately recording completed work

What we're looking for:

Proven experience as a Carpenter/Joiner (social housing experience is a bonus, not essential)

NVQ Level 2 or equivalent in Carpentry & Joinery (preferred)

Full UK driving licence
