We have an opportunity for an experienced Handyperson to support maintenance works across a single housing estate in the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea. This is a static position based solely on one housing estate, meaning there is no travel required between multiple sites.

A pool van is available on-site for use during the day if needed. There is a secure lock‑up on the estate where you can safely store your tools, so you won’t need to transport them daily.

• Conducting general maintenance and repair works in council‑owned properties.

• Installing and replacing fixtures such as door closers, handles, locks, noticeboards, and signage.
• Accurately diagnosing issues and determining appropriate repair solutions.
• Liaising professionally with tenants and housing staff to provide updates and maintain a high level of customer satisfaction.
• Recording all completed works and materials used through job management systems or paperwork as required.
• Reporting any additional works or health and safety concerns to supervisors promptly.
• Maintaining cleanliness and tidiness of work areas during and after tasks are completed.

Qualifications

• Full UK Driving Licence (manual).
• Previous experience within social housing.
