6 months ago


Newquay, United Kingdom Away Resorts Full time

**Location**: Newperran Holiday Resort, Cornwall.

**Job Type**: Seasonal contract - Weekends (additional hours may be available during peak times).

**Salary**: £11.44 per hour.

**What we need in a nutshell**

We need someone who will keep our accommodation, and the holiday park, in tip-top condition and looking spectacular, repairing, maintaining, renewing, and improving everything from the entrance signage to the back fence.

**Who are we?**

A breath-taking Cornwall escape, Newperran Holiday Park is where the grass is the greenest of greens and the sky is the bluest of blues.

We are a dynamic and growing company, shaking up the Great British holiday. At our amazing UK resorts we pull out all the stops and add the bells and whistles to give our guests the holiday of a lifetime.

**What you’ll be doing**

As part of our team of holiday heroes, you will help the Maintenance Manager to ensure everything is in good working order. Your work will include:

- Carpentry, e.g., repair of doors, windows, kitchen units, walls and floors, signage, roofs & gutters and just about anything else wooden that you can think of.
- Hedge cutting, grass cutting, maintaining park grounds to our 5 star standards.
- Landscaping, including paving and fencing.
- Painting, decorating, and tiling.
- Maintenance jobs; everything from replacing light bulbs to troubleshooting faulty locks and cutting keys.
- Carrying out maintenance checks and repairs on changeover days, working with other tradespeople when necessary
- Pretty much anything else that other people can’t do

Guests and staff will look to you to fix what’s broken and restore order, so you will need to be confident, friendly and obliging in addition to your practical skills.

One more thing holidays happen at holiday times, so you’ll need to work your magic on bank holidays, evenings and weekends too.

**Skills, experience, and qualities you’ll need.**
- Ability to carry out domestic repairs and maintenance, e.g., tiling, painting, lock repairs etc
- An understanding of Health & Safety at work
- Full UK Driving licence

Add in the ability to think for yourself and be proactive, great people skills, unfailing enthusiasm, and extremely high standards of craftsmanship - if you’ve got all that, you’re in the running.

It’s about your values too. We have a can-do, fun loving, people centred ethos here at Away Resorts, which is captured by our holiday heroes’ mantra of Attentive Amazing Lovers - if that’s fired up your curiosity, have a read about it here and decide if it describes you.

**Nice to have but not essential.**

It would be great if you tick some of these boxes too (but we won’t hold it against you if you don’t).
- Experience of working in a holiday park.

read about it on our website and decide if it describes you.

**What we can offer you**

This is a flexible role that we can help you fit into your life and it can also lead to other roles and career progression if you want it to. We look after you with a great range of benefits, including:

- Discounts on Away Resorts Holidays for you and your family & friends
- On Park Discounts
- Awards and Recognition
- Uniform provided

**Want to join our team? Here’s how to apply**

**Our promise to you**

Holiday Heroes come with all sorts of different super-powers, and we welcome them all After all, wouldn’t it be boring if we were all the same? We embrace diversity, inclusion and equal opportunities. We love that everyone comes from different backgrounds, allowing us to grow and inspire each other.
