Job Description

Location:

Southport

Capacity:

34 Residents (plus a specialist spinal therapy pool)

Salary:

14.50-15.00 per hour (DOE)

Contract:

Full-time (with on-call responsibility on alternate weekends)

Bring Your Skills. Bring Your Drive. Bring Your Spark!

Sandpipers Care Centre isn't your average care home -- we're a unique setting with 34 residents and a spinal therapy pool, and we're on the hunt for a Maintenance Person who's not only skilled, but full of energy, pride, and drive.

This isn't just about keeping the lights on (although yes, you'll do that too) -- it's about creating a safe, vibrant environment where residents, staff, and families feel at home.

What You'll Be Doing (AKA Why You'll Love It)

Fix it, paint it, build it, improve it -- joinery, painting & decorating, general repairs, you'll keep the home looking its best. Keep us safe -- fire checks, water safety, and health & safety compliance are part of your daily rhythm. Stay organised -- completing paperwork, logging jobs, and updating our digital system (yep, we're modern like that). Work with pride -- making sure the building functions flawlessly and looks welcoming for everyone who steps inside. Pitch in with energy -- every day is different, so you'll need to be hands-on, adaptable, and ready for anything. Be reliable when it matters -- you'll join the on-call rota on alternate weekends, making sure we always have cover for essential maintenance support.
You'll Fit Right In If You...

Have solid maintenance experience (care home setting is a big advantage). Know your way around joinery, decorating, repairs, and odd jobs. Are comfortable with paperwork and digital platforms (because ticking boxes is as important as tightening bolts). Can work independently, but also enjoy being part of a lively team. Bring enthusiasm, a strong work ethic, and a keen eye for detail. Understand the importance of flexibility and are happy to be on-call on alternate weekends.
Why Choose Sandpipers?

Competitive pay: 14.50-15.00 per hour DOE. A workplace with character, variety, and heart. Supportive team and leadership that actually value your work. The satisfaction of knowing you're helping create a safe, comfortable, and happy home. Did we mention? You'll get to work in a home with its own spinal therapy pool -- how many maintenance jobs can say that?
Ready to Build, Fix & Shine With Us?

If you're experienced, motivated, and ready to bring your best every day, we want to meet you.
