Hastings, United Kingdom Southern Housing Full time

**The role**

If you’re physically fit, versatile, self-motivated and driven, with experience in the Grounds Maintenance industry or other similar, strenuous and outdoor work, join Southern Housing as a **Grounds Maintenance Operative.**

**This is a part-time (16 hours / week), 24 months fixed-term contract.**

**What you’ll be doing**
