Job Purpose

This team has been appointed to provide a planned and reactive maintenance service to our end client, a world class provider of emergency and urgent health care services in pre-hospital and out of hospital environments. Services are to be provided across Kent with half million patient transport journeys handled every year. Rydon Maintenance are committed to provide a first-class planned, preventative and reactive maintenance service to ensure that this Trust is able to continue to deliver its services without disruption.

As part of this exciting new role, you will be providing a planned and reactive maintenance service to the buildings fabric, M&E plant, equipment and alarm systems within Ambulance Stations, Make-Ready Centres (MRC's) and Ambulance Community Response Posts (ACRP's). In addition, there will also be some planned upgrade works and refurbishment works as part of our ongoing efforts to ensure a safe environment for service users and Trust staff. Depending on your exact trade background, maintenance works may include changing of light fixtures/light bulbs, carpentry, replacing door handles and locks, painting and decorating, some basic plumbing (changing taps, washers), general wear and tear maintenance (filling of holes/retouching, light plastering).

What we can offer you;

Competitive starting salary

A company van and fuel card.

A full time permanent position. Normal working hours are 8am to 5:00pm Monday to Friday. You will also participate in an on call rota for emergency repairs where you will receive a standby allowance and overtime rates.
