We are looking for a skilled and customer-focused Reactive Plumber to join our maintenance team in Bracknell. This is a fast-paced, high-impact role where you will be the face of the service, attending social housing properties to carry out vital repairs.

While your core focus will be plumbing, you will be a true multi-trade professional, capable of tackling carpentry and minor masonry tasks to ensure a "first-time fix" for our residents.

• Reactive Maintenance: Complete a wide variety of plumbing, carpentry, and masonry tasks in accordance with NVQ Level 2/3 standards.

• Customer Excellence: Act as an ambassador for the organization, liaising with residents clearly to explain repair progress and ensuring a professional, empathetic service at all times.

• Health & Safety: Adhere to all building regulations and safety legislation. You will be responsible for following risk assessments and method statements (RAMS) and using PPE correctly.

• Digital Workflow: Competently use a smartphone/tablet to record job progress, manage timesheets, and track material usage.

• Commercial Awareness: Apply a ''Schedule of Rates'' (SOR) for job costing and ensure repair orders are updated to the correct values.

• Van & Stock Management: Maintain a clean, well-stocked vehicle. Procure materials through partnering suppliers and carry out regular vehicle safety checks.

• Team Support: Assist other trades as required and participate in an Out of Hours (OOH) emergency call-out rota.

• Trade Background: Proven experience in domestic plumbing and carpentry within a maintenance or social housing environment.

• Qualifications: Minimum NVQ Level 2 (or equivalent time-served experience) in Plumbing, Carpentry, or Maintenance Operations.

• Multi-Skilled Ability: Demonstrated competency in "non-core" trades (e.g., if you are a Plumber by trade, you must be comfortable with basic carpentry/tiling/patching).

• Efficiency: Experience working within a trade team to tight timescales and "first-time fix" targets.

• Compliance: A full, clean UK Driving Licence is essential.

• Physicality: Ability to undertake physically demanding work in residential settings.

• Stability: A permanent, Monday-to-Friday role with a leading housing provider.

• Tools for the Job: A company-branded van, fuel card, and all necessary power tools and technology (mobile/tablet) provided.

• Growth: Opportunities to undergo further training to widen your skill level and progress your career within the organization.

• Environment: A supportive team culture that values safety, quality, and the well-being of its residents.
