About Us

Rainbows Hospice for Children and Young People is a leading provider of specialist care services for children and young people with life-limiting conditions. We are committed to delivering high-quality care and support to families across the East Midlands.

We are seeking a skilled Maintenance Rep/Handyperson to join our Estates & Facilities Team, playing a vital role in maintaining the health and safety of our buildings and grounds. This is a dynamic and rewarding role that requires a high level of competence in minor property maintenance, plant, electrical, engineering, plumbing, and grounds maintenance.

Responsibilities:

  • Develop and implement a programme of scheduled maintenance for all areas of the hospice, including decoration, refurbishment, and rebuilding work.

  • Perform various painting and redecoration tasks, including wallpapering, painting with different paints, varnishes, and finishes both inside and outside.
What We Offer:
  • A competitive salary of £26,500 - £28,500 per annum, depending on experience.
  • A 37.5-hour working week, Monday to Friday, with some flexibility to cover evening shifts, weekends, and bank holidays.
  • Opportunities for professional development and growth within the organization.
  • A contributory pension scheme or salary sacrifice pension scheme.
  • A range of benefits, including free on-site parking, a health cash plan, and access to an Employee Assistance Programme.
  • Free meals at the hospice.
