We are doing things a little differently at the moment, so to keep you, our customers and ourselves safe we?ll engage with you digitally where possible.

About our team

You?ll be working as part of our fabulous team who are super passionate about delivering a first-class maintenance solution to our customers. Our Head of Maintenance Jonny has worked here at Home Group for 3 years, having worked in the property sector for the past 9 years. Outside of work Jonny enjoys a hectic social life and when not out on his bike is planning his next holiday destination.  

You will have the support of a fantastic management team Neil, Graeme, Paul, Richard and Steve who are passionate about getting it right for the customer as well as setting and smashing targets. We like a challenge; we hope you do too!

When you?ll work

It?s the team?s unwritten rule that you attend the important appointments in life, be it your child?s school play, your partner?s graduation, or to get your new fridge delivered. You can elect to fit these around your working day or use your flexi to take the time off. Our focus is on getting the job done, not your working hours!

About you

You?ll be RICS or CIOB accredited with a Building Surveying degree or similar qualification. You?ll have up to date knowledge of building construction, repairs and safety which you can speak about and implement with confidence to your stakeholders.

You?ll have a commercial mind-set, being curious and confident to challenge spend and quality of works, keeping projects and programmes of work to be delivered on time and within budget

Here at Home Group we have invested heavily in our future and use current and up to date equipment. You?ll be issued with the latest kit, which could include a Surface Pro and mobile. So, it's really important to us that you are technologically savvy (or at the very least not a technophobe!)
